I have been coming to this airport for a couple of years and it has always been a great airport with a wonderful group of people staffing the FBO. It has until recently been a 24 hour operation. While I appreciate the great service, the airport has decided not to be open 24 hours recently. There is no access to the airport after 7 PM weekends leaving pilots unable to depart unless they arrive before this time. Transients at RONs should be fully aware of this. While I didn't ask, I assume this also applies to fuel purchases. Hopefully airport management will provide some means to access the field after hours soon.
Response from David Mann, Vice President & General Manager, Racine Commercial Airport Corp.
KRAC has personnel in the office 05:00 - 21:00 Mon - Fri and 07:00 - 19:00. However, we are willing to either be there for assistance if needed and can open the gates remotely from four different employees homes to allow access to the ramp. Just call the posted airport number to request this service or make arrangements on arrival. We will always be happy to help.

Flew in Friday night with a friend in a 172. I had called a couple hours ahead to let them know when I was due in and they had the courtesy car (van) running and warm for us (temp outside was about 12 degrees plus a 17 kt wind). Very friendly staff. Ate at Infusino's, just a short 2 minute drive away. Quick service - in and out in 30 minutes on a BUSY night and the food was good. We'll be back!

I am the manager of a small airport in central KS, a corporate pilot, and I have worked at a top-ranked busy FBO in a large city so trust me when I say that the guys at KRAC know how to give first class service. We came to the area to visit my wife's grandmother in Milwaukee. Rather than pay the insane fees & fuel prices at Signature at KMKE I decided to give Racine a try. These guys bent over backwards to help us out. They had our rental car ready and waiting. I didn't get the little storm window closed before leaving the plane and they tracked me down to find out what I wanted them to do. When I got back to the airport they had created an ingenious little thing to keep the window closed from the outside. To top it off, when we brought grandma out to see the plane, they had a wheel chair handy to help her get around the ramp. Fantastic job guys, see you next time.

Stopped by in a 172 for a few hours. It was freezing out but the line guys had no problem going out and filling us up. They had good fuel prices and very friendly service I will return again and suggest it to others!

Satisfied. Stopped on Saturday morning, parked Arrow right by the FBO. Walked over to Horlick Dam to watch salmon fishermen. Then walked over to Quarry Park saw one guy landing a beautiful Steelie! Then walked back to the FBO (20min). Didn't buy fuel, parking was free people were friendly.

I fly to a lot of places, and this is one of the best FBO's there is. The staff is great. The facility is great. The service is great. And it's a great place to pick up some TKS as well.
