Needed to fly into Frenchville, Maine last weekend to attend a celebration of life for a dear friend. Upon landing was met on the ramp by Matt, the airport manager. I told him we'd be there for 2 nights and would fill up before leaving. He asked if we were being picked up and I said I'd be calling an Uber or Taxi to get to the Inn of Acadia. Matt said I had 3 options, try my plan to call for a ride, let him give me a ride or take the crew car for the weekend. While highly unexpected to be given a car for 2 full days I took him up on it and it worked out great. Then we decided to leave early Sunday, so I called Matt and let him know. It was earlier than he wanted to be at the airport on a Sunday, so he topped me off on Saturday, secured the plane and then called me after we got home to settle the bill, which was just for the fuel and very reasonable. All in all, if flying anywhere near Frenchville, Maine make sure to stop into KFVE and see what small airport care is like.

Flew to KFVE for the 300nm CPL c/c requirement. Pulled up to the fuel farm and airport manager met me there and started preparing to fuel even before I got out. They offer a cash/check discount and the 100LL was $1/gal less than my home airport. Manager offered me a crew car and recommendations for activities around town. Very scenic surroundings also. I'd definitely go back - very nice airport and staff.
