From Steve Cox on 29-Jul-2008
Flew into West Yellowstone on Saturday morning, July 26, 2008 and camped over the weekend. There was wood cut, about 6 assorted bicycles (West Yellowstone 2 ½ miles away), fire pit with a metal grading, picnic table, shower and the porta John. No fees for these services. A fence is around the airport property called a "wildlife fence". That keeps the deer, elk, and buffalo off the runway and out of your tent. Only pilots have access to the campsite read secure. There is commercial airline service in and out so do pay attention to parking rules if you rent a car. We didn't try the restaurant in the terminal but it's nice to know there is food a ¼ mile from your tent. Our nearest camper was over 150 feet away. Lot's of trees and shade. The FBO couldn't have been more helpful. This is a pilot friendly FBO and airport with great people. My wife is already planning a trip back in August or September. Tie down fee was $5 per day and fuel was $6.12/gal for 100LL.
 
From Randall Perkins on 28-Jun-2008
Great place to fly to. Staff was super friendly, Mom and Pop operation with kids working the desk and local restaurant. Pay attention to ramp rules if you rent a car. Campgrounds clean and at right price, bring bug repellant. On field restaurant is now open serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Little pricey but great food.... No longer Italian but excellent American fare.

From Doug Chapman on 14-Nov-2007
RJ, Sandy, Adam, and the rest of the crew do a great job! I always know they'll take good care of me and my plane, even when fire season is going strong.
 
From G August on 14-Sep-2007
Need to add our kudos to the FBO staff. They met us at the taxiway with a golf cart ready to transport us to the terminal & again, bright and early, back to the plane for departure. Friendly, helpful with great "stuff", hats, shirts, etc. To commemorate the landing here. This is the kind of FBO that pilots dream about!
 
From Jon Rudolf on 09-Sep-2007
Flying into West Yellowstone represents all that is great about general aviation. You're greeted by some of the nicest people on the planet that will do anything they can to make your stay perfect. The airport is a first class facility offering the most convenient access to one of the best places in America. All that service and convenience at bargain prices too: only $4 a day for parking, and that includes on-site camping with a hot shower and loaner bikes. Rental cars are convenient and reasonable, and the airport restaurant offers good "Montana Italian." Not much time left to visit this year before they close at the end of September, but make a point to go next year.
 
From C Hale on 04-Aug-2007
Sandy, Bob and the rest of the crew were always right there ready to help with great attitudes. Great place to stop in at!!
 
From Mark Peters on 31-Jul-2007
Always the best of service and help year after year. It's all there in one building for pilots. Rental cars, food, restrooms, Internet access, cool weather and great sunsets.
 
From Jim Walters on 11-Jul-2007
SUPERB place to re-fuel. FBO is right in the terminal; Sandy and her crew made us feel like we were somebody important. Quick fuel, fresh coffee, stale doughnut, fast internet, what more could a fellow want --
 
From Rich Steidl on 01-Jul-2007
Wonderful, friendly service. They met us on the ramp, tied the plane down and took our bags to the terminal for us. They asked if we needed a ride to our hotel before I even got a chance to ask about transportation. Quick, attentive service from a really nice group of people.
 
From David Taylor on 28-Jun-2007
Previously reported excellent standards have been maintained by FBO. Very helpful and understanding guys despite oppressive presence of TSA. (Why do we need six -6- TSA agents at a tiny airport like this? Country has gone mad; they were tripping on each other!) Anyway, thanks YSA. Due to D.A. I couldn’t even buy fuel, they understood. Do tips compensate? Hard to know.
 
From Christopher M. Tochterman on 14-Jun-2007
Staff was very friendly and provided great service! We were met on the ramp and tied down. Aircraft was fueled and ready to go the next day for a timely departure.
 
From Ney Grant on 04-Oct-2006
I love this airport. Wonderful camping facilities and easy access to rental car and the national park. We spent a few crisp fall days here Oct 1, 2006. Cool hiking and warm campfires.
 
From Dennis Lyons on 23-Sep-2006
After over six hours flying, Sandy was great! Answered our phone calls before we went, met us on arrival, helped us in so many ways with our group of Antique airplanes. She came over every time we stopped to check on the airplanes during our week stay, even in the snow and rain to see if we needed anything. Real old fashioned helpful neighbors! A natural place to stop for a Yellowstone visit. We will visit again as soon as we can.
 
From Braun Mincher on 08-Sep-2006
We tied down at WYS for several days while visiting a friend in the area. The service was attentive and very friendly. Unicom answered promptly and we were met upon arrival to get us fuel and tie downs. We look forward to going back to this airport; thanks again for the great service!
 
From Carlos Roots on 29-Aug-2006
Flew in this past Sunday. Great scenery and service!
 
From William Kight on 12-Aug-2006
Delightful people run Yellowstone Aviation. Sandy was a welcoming pleasure after a LONG flight. Avis car rental is right next to Yellowstone Aviation and they provided competent, timely service. For a clean, large but very basic room at a good price for a resort town, try Al's Westward Ho Motel 406-646-7331. The Italian restaurant in the terminal with Yellowstone Aviation is outstanding.
 
From Dave Boydston on 28-Jul-2006
We have been flying into KWYS for the last 5 years and have nothing but the highest respect for RJ, Sandy, Adam and their crew. Our home base is relatively close so our fuel purchases are primarily courtesy but they always marshall us in and offer any assistance we need. Stop by and say hi, you won't be disappointed.
 
From Kevin Condroski on 29-Jun-2006
Friendly staff and great service! They met us on the ramp, tied down the airplane, and brought us to the terminal for free coffee. Don't forget there's a pilot's campground on the north end of the ramp, and a great Italian restaurant for dinner right in the terminal building.
 
From Philip Varley on 28-Jun-2006
These guys are really glad to see you as the airport only sees 2 commercial flights a day. They ARE the airport! There is a Budget car rental counter there too, and it's walking distance to town. The flight out NW then SW down the fjord makes for interesting flying!
 
From Ron Calugar on 23-May-2006
Beautiful airport. They helped us with the rental car immediately. This is the perfect airport from which to Yellowstone.
 
From Scott Wanstedt on 29-Nov-2005
When I stopped at WYS the day before Thanksgiving the airport was closed. As of the end of September it turns into a winter test facility for tires, snowmobiles, etc. I was stopping for fuel due to an unexpected headwind just to find that no fuel was available. Ended up bumming a ride into town to pick up some mogas to exercise my STC. Beautiful location. I'll have to stop back when it's open.
