- 3/21/22Great airportTzvetan K.Airport is in a great location. Eglin approach routed me around the complex airspace structure, which afforded me with some excellent views of the area. It's a busy airport, but the tower handles the traffic professionally and calmly, making first ti…
- 6/6/19Mike G.Very, very expensive. There is a charge to land, and depending on your aircraft it can be several hundred dollars. The fuel prices are sometimes the highest in the U.S. Go to any nearby airport for better service and a way less expensive visit. Aviat…
- 1/6/19Douglas H.Fees are high here. You will incur a FBO Facility Charge of $15 if you do not purchase fuel, which is also priced very high. Overnight tie-down parking is $15.

- 5/27/14SIMON H.I flew in for a short fuelling/food stop and used Regal Air (formerly Miracle Strip). I hadn't called ahead but I got very friendly and helpful service from everyone including use of the courtesy car. Avgas was expensive at over $7/gal.
