Montgomery Aviation provided great service with fuel and transportation. Cody gave us a ride to the Dutch Cafe where we had a great buffet lunch. Then he gave us a ride to the Museum. The have a neat museum with indoor displays and a number of aircraft on display outside. Even though this is an active air force reserve base there is very little trafic and the airport is very GA friendly.
