ANN loves to pass on first-hand information of interest to
flyers around the globe... especially when it's positive news. In
this case, it's doubly enjoyable in that it concerns an old friend
of ours, and his new FBO operation.
If any of you have additional PIREPs about any aviation business
or entity to share, we'd love to hear from you so that aviators the
world over may benefit from your experience.
Cirrus Pilot Rick Eiler stopped in
at Tango One Aviation in Mesa, AZ at Falcon Field Municipal airport
(FFZ), and filed the following report.
"Only FBO at KFFZ worth using! Tango One was amazing!
I have used both FBO's on the field, however Tango One will always
get my business. I was getting in later then planned 20:00 local
time so I called and spoke with Chris. I knew that they closed at
20:00 so I asked where I could park, Chris explained the south tie
down area to me in great detail. Arrived 21:30 and Chris was still
there to park and tie me down. Great service and it gets
better.
Knowing that the next day at my departure time
of 11:00 it would be approx. 100 F, I asked if they had any hanger
space, unfortunately they did not. Upon arriving 11:00 the next
morning, I did not see my aircraft, they had pushed it into the
hanger at 8:00 to keep it cool. They even had their mechanic
working on the air conditioning unit of a Saratoga in the sun to
provide me with shade. Conclusion, Great Service, Great Fuel Price
and the Best FBO at KFFZ."
It looks like Dewitt and the gang are off to a good start. I
might note that his FBO has a pretty aggressive fuel sale going
right now... 1.99 per gallon... for BOTH 100LL and
JetA.
Heckuva deal, no?
