Flew in for the "Planes & Thangs" Sept 20. What a great day in a great little town. Borrowed one of the crew cars to get lunch and stop at Van Hooks for melons. Hadn't flown to LHX in a few years but will be back. Perfect half-day trip, including brunch at the golf course.

Called ahead making sure they had fuel and a crew car. (2) Had a good stop here very helpful folks. Good fuel prices for the high prices that we are living with. Copper Kitchen is a must Les Anderson (owner) a guy you'll not forget. Great breakfast.

I also had trouble with the 100 LL pump. The attendant filled my plane and gave me the self-serve price without me even asking for it. They loaned us a crew car and we had a great stay in town. It's a great fuel stop and RON. I'd stop here any time.

Stopped on May 19th. Not only was self-serve pump inop but it also voided 2 of my credit cards attempting to re do the card reader and get the pump working. Finally the attendant came over and filled me from the truck but wouldn't give me the self-serve price. I called the FBO manager on the phone but he just stated that they were working on the problem. My advice...Don't plan on going in after hours unless you call ahead!

Arrived near 5 pm on Sunday for Jet-A turn-around. Airport service was prompt, friendly, and affordable as described. Would come back for fuel stop.

March, I planned a stop for fuel (very competitive) listed guaranteed on AirNav. Upon arrival it was +/- .30 higher for 100LL than advertised. I complained to whoever was there and was pleasantly surprised that when I returned home 3-4 days hence I had a message on my base phone telling me an adjustment was due!!!! Now that is the way to do business. The prices had changed but the listing had not changed yet. They stood behind their guarantee! I like that. G.P. Twin C-340A very easy in and out!

This was a planned stop from the midwest to the west coast due to posted fuel price. The listed cost is accurate, most competitive fuel within 75 of miles of route. The attendants were deliberately helpful and friendly. If more FBO's were like La Junta, there would be more pilots.

I have made several quick turn fuel stops at LHX. It's very easy to get in and out and their fuel prices are very competitive. Definitely recommend.

Great place to do a quick turn, very friendly and great prices, will try to make this a regular stop.

I'll echo the recent comments about friendliness! Whatever problems they may have had in the past, Don made me immediately welcome & practically insisted I take the car into town for lunch. Self-serve pump was a breeze, and the cheapest gas I've found in the area. Nice stop!

What a great place to stop. I landed here going half way across this great country today with our company airplane and what a nice, laid back great place for fuel. Great price... What nice people. Stop here and realize what friendly people La Junta Colorado has. I've been through this area driving many times en route to visit relatives. There is nothing fancy here but good and honest folks here. Enjoy.

Enjoyed a nice stop after a long flight and was greeted by a gentleman who was improving the pilot's lounge. He indicated that there might be inexpensive "on-field" accommodations for just dollars a night very soon. A vanity is being installed for the female travelers but it isn't ready yet. They are even working on an aviation museum. The SS pump was working fine and was even given a soda for the flight. I was sent off with "we are trying to keep the skies friendly!” I will be stopping on my way back.

Stopped here in our C-208 Caravan to load up on fuel. Great place for low price fuel with excellent service. Used their courtesy car to spend the night at the Holiday Inn Express and eat a great steak at El Capitan. We'll stop here again!

Stopped in, unexpectedly, on March 19th when my wife was feeling airsick. Made ourselves at home on the couch for an hour. Nice facility for a quick break...Friendly folks. Thanks!

Wonderfull experience!! Arrived late on a Friday evening and attendant was still there to make sure we got the courtesy car ok for overnight stay. Will always make it a point to stop here for trips West in the future.

Good service & courtesy car. Self-serve pump is erratic and we had to use the fuel truck to fill on 31 July. For overnight -- recommend the "Quality" Inn.

Generally one of the best fuel prices around. However, one of my pet peeves is an unreliable self-serve system. It took me three credit cards and three separate transactions to fill my tanks. The card reader stinks, and the pump shut off in the middle of an operation. Fortunately the attendant was there to help, but I wouldn't count on this self-serve operating properly after business hours. Summer hours are 7am to 7pm everyday through September.

Great OLD AAF field.. Fuel great....BUT.. Check hours if expecting courtesy car etc... We diverted and stopped in on Sun at 3 PM and the staff had just left... No indication of how to get to town or ??? Another local transient plane came up and assisted with local wx and topography... Suggested further diversion south and we went on to Flagstaff without a meal or rest...

Great fuel prices and friendly local flyers! The self serve pump sounded like it was eating a rock and wouldn't move fuel initially, but the locals advised patience and it would eventually move 100LL- just like it did. I'll stop here again.
