We stopped in for a 3-day summer trip. Joe and Kino were very friendly, helpful, and informative. Enterprise won't pick you up, but the FBO will help you get a rental car. We'll be back again! Great FBO service!

Top notch guys here. We came in for the skiing in our Cherokee Six. From start to finish, everyone there was a huge help.

Called ahead for a heated hangar. They suggested using the tiedowns for the first 2 days and using the heated hangar for the last night. I appreciated that. The heated hangar was only needed the last night and heat's expensive ($50/night). Good fuel prices for an airport near a ski area. We used their connection with the local Ford dealer to rent a car (make a reservation). Taos Aviation made it a smooth trip.

No deice fluid available. Inquired about the availability of hangar prior to arrival and was assured no problem. Spent 4 days on ramp. Called 2 hours before takeoff with fuel order and asked for hangar to defrost airplane. Attendant told us hangar was reserved by jets weeks in advance. Guess we were left off the list. Only one attendant to fuel, answer phone, and move aircraft. He was overwhelmed and made us :30 late on departure. Be careful here is you are on a schedule. They are woefully understaffed.
Response from Kino Chavez, Taos Aviation Services
Taos Aviation apologizes to Mr. Smith. We are woefully understaffed for the holiday season but we do not take seasonal hires due to the risk of part time workers dealing with expensive aircraft. The new years holiday is the busiest weekend of the year for an airport in the Rockies located near a ski resort. We encourage pilots to make hangar reservations well in advance.

Had to make an unscheduled stop here due to weather in the mountains. Kino made it a very pleasant 2-hour stay. He helped get the fuel pumps all set up so the only self-service involved was pulling the handle. Provided a free courtesy car into town so we could get lunch. I will definitely come back here.

Not Air BP anymore. Overwhelmingly helpful service. Beautiful environment. Crew car into town. Very friendly desk help. Recommend this as a stop.

Considering Taos is a major resort area prices here are quite reasonable -- even for rental cars. Excellent service, too.

TAS provided helpful and courteous service during my stay in January 2008. Can't say enough good things about them.

Great stop over the New Year weekend. It was very cold but the runway was very clean and well plowed. Special thank you to Keno for super aid in getting my 310 started on a very cold day. Great service and super FBO We will return.

Kino Chavez is one of the two guys here. He's a gem! Terrific service and great self service fuel prices. Kino called Best Western for our overnight stay...Pick up and drop off service (good idea since the airport is several miles from Taos) and pilot's discount.

10/06/07 Joe at SKX was fantastic for our 2-week stay in Taos. Numerous trips in and out, rent cars, starter problems; he went above and beyond helping me and all members of the family. Many thanks Joe.

Got stuck for a weather day. Mark the airport manager went above and beyond to accommodate me. I got teeded off because Brian ignored me for a bit (I had a time trying to figure out the intricacies of the myriad of valves and pumps on the self serve) but I warmed up to him once I got his attention. Real helpful and courteous he was. To his defense he was busy with jets but I got there first, ya know. The Citation wanted to light up and blast off real quick so it was drop everything for that guy. I got out at 0500 the next day and I'll tell ya, even at that time of day that rwy is short for that altitude. I had 800 remaining after breaking free. Fortunately, I had 20 miles or more to climb at a paltry 300 fpm.

Stopped in at Taos for a July 4th weekend stay. FBO staff was exceptional! Lineman met plane at self-serve pump and did everything but use his own credit card. Enterprise rental cars on-site - car delivered right to plane by line crew. Reasonable $5/day ramp fee mandated by city officials. Working computer in pilot lounge for flight planning & wx. No frills but very functional facility - great service - reasonable fuel prices -- highly recommended!

Bryan at SKX is really great. Very friendly and even helps you fill up at the self-serve. Wish we had more folks at airports like Bryan. Price for AVGAS ($4.45/gal) wasn't too bad in comparison to other NM airports.

Taos Aviation Services is a great FBO at SKX. Yesterday we took a short hop from Albuquerque to Taos for an Angel Flight outreach event - no fuel needed. Bryan directed us to parking, had the rental car delivered to the aircraft, and helped us with our display case and luggage. All the rental car paper was completed at the FBO, no need to drive to Enterprise to complete it. On the return to the airfield, Kino checked the car back in and let us drive to the aircraft and unload. The FBO is clean and comfortable, all in all a very pleasant experience.

Arrived to find unexpected snow and ice on my transportation. BRIAN cheerfully pulls me in the heated hangar and he and I deice my bird on and off for a couple of hours. We are so grateful for BRIAN'S unstoppable customer care and service. As usual we can't say enough nice things about these guys.

Brian at SKX is great. We were there in August and again last week (December) and the service were excellent on both occasions. Yesterday they were digging out from a nice snowstorm and he tugged our Bonanza into the hangar in the morning to thaw it out prior to our departure. Great stop for fuel or for several days.

Great stop fast and friendly. Had a starter issue, and they assisted while I propped it. No fuss, nice place to visit.
