Great facility on Cumberland Plateau with easy access to both Knoxpatch, Oak Ridge and environs. Second trip and will return. The only area for improvement would be more rental car options.

Flew to Rockwood for a business meeting on August 25th. Danny had my rental car ready and even provided breakfast! He said with my early arrival he didn't think I would have had time to eat before I took off. Great service all around. I hope business brings me back sometime soon.

We have been flying in and out of the Rockwood Airport every few weeks since December 08 in support of the cleanup operations at the TVA Kingston Power Plant. The airport staff and service they provide is top notch.

On behalf of Civil Air Patrol, I wish to thank Danny Collins and his staff for their help in making our SAREX last month a great success in spite of the monsoon rains.

One of the best small airports to drop into. Had to spend the day there recently and the airport manager had a hot sausage biscuit waiting for me when I landed, than offered me lunch. Went out of his way to make my day enjoyable while waiting for my passengers to return. He has many interesting memorabilia in the lobby to look at and a very comfortable pilots lounge to relax in. This is an airport that is definitely on the list to stop at if you’re in the area.

We've visited RKW 3 times in the last 30 days and each visit is perfect. Danny the airport manager runs the facility and keeps it spotless. Great service, great location and unbelieveable fuel price. While fixing a broken aircraft Danny bent over backwards to accommodate us and ensure our visit was pleasant and productive. Kudos to the City of Rockwood and Rockwood Aviation for offering such nice facilities and highly experienced management. Thanks for the great service and unbeatable fuel prices, you can rest assured I'll be back!!!

This airport is a must stop if you're just traveling around or have business anywhere near Rockwood. Danny made us feel more than welcomed at KRKW. His hospitality on top of the beautiful view on landing makes this a diamond in the rough. I would highly suggest stopping in even if it's to stretch your legs.

Danny and Liberty were most helpful with our stop there a few months ago. Great fuel prices, friendly service, beautiful scenery..... There isn't much more you can ask for (they even have Wi-Fi!)! Danny definitely runs a tight ship and went above and beyond to help us out with our long layover in our Citation. I hope my travels bring me to Rockwood again.

I recently flew into Rockwood with my previous flight instructor to be dropped off for a few days, as always the staff at RKW could not have been any better...This is the 3rd time I've been to this gem of an airport and have found only exceptional service. Danny had the number to a quick & very fair cab service for the ride to Spring City. I have regrets that I missed the recent "fly-in" a couple of weeks ago; I greatly enjoyed last year's Thanks Again to Danny & Crew!!

Changed our plans and stopped there at 5:30pm on Sunday. We intended to grab a cab to town for overnight. However, everything was locked up and there was no gate to allow us out of the barbed wire fence! Fortunately, the credit card fuel system worked well, so we filled up and flew to another airport. Newly paved runway and taxiway.
Response from Danny Collins, Rockwood Aviation, LLC
Mr. Page to the left of the 20' gate is a 4' man gate that is open 24/7..... Sorry you had problems. Thanks for stopping at RKW!

On ferry flight back from CA to VA. Great facilities, friendly staff. The fastest fuel turnaround that I ever had. Cool collection of memorabilia in the FBO building. Runway recently resurfaced and in excellent shape. Beautiful mountain views in the pattern. Oh, and competitive fuel prices. What more do you want?

This might be the friendliest airport that you will ever find. Great facilities, wonderful personnel, and breathtaking views.

Great little airport perched on a ridge just off I-40. A good GA alternative to TYS. Very complete office/lounge with weather info. Avgas is a bit pricey but considering no charge for tie downs it's a wash. Will stop again.

What a great airport. The runway appears to be brand new and the taxiways are scheduled for completion in 9 days, according to the folks there. The airport manager was very friendly and helped me fuel the plane. Weather facilities and Internet are available to pilots. I highly recommend this airport!

Great little airport! Although the pump is a 24hr self-serve, the guy on duty came out and helped me re-fuel on a quick turn at Rockwood. Cheap fuel, and good service! Thanks for your help - hope to be back soon when the taxiway is finished!

Always had good things to say about RKW but this time something to write about. On pre-flight for Houston discovered fuel leak. Newly located AP/IA, John Keigans stopped what he was doing and had me squared away in 15 min. Thanks John. Taxi construction appears near completion, runway in excellent shape.

Rockwood Aviation is a professional operation. Danny makes every effort to assist pilots and passengers. Nice facility, Internet available. Very large ramp for large aircraft, allows turnaround room to use fuel pumps. Danny will assist with fueling. Courtesy car, rental car available. This is a great alternative for Knoxville (TYS). Quiet pilots lounge. Lunch available upon request. Visited 8-21-2007.

Wide runway in excellent condition. They are adding a taxiway too. Danny provided excellent friendly service with fuel at reasonable prices. Decent rental car was available on the field for $45 a day. Highly recommended airport.

Stopped in for fuel more than once and each time I was met by a helpful young man. Nice guy to talk to and very quick in helping you get fueled. A good place to stop. Thanks!!!
