- 5/7/19Danforth N.Been based at KGBR for years. Friendly, competent staff in a lovely location.
- 2/5/17GREG M.Flew in for a fuel stop on 2/4/17 was greeted warmly and the staff was great. It was cold but a great airport to fly in to. I recommend if you're in the area to stop by and visit. Greg N95181
- 9/4/16ERIC H.Wonderful airport to hang out at on a sunny afternoon. Lots of grass, shade, places to sit, cold drinks and friendly folks to chat with. I sure wish there were more airports like this left. The town is really nice (15 min away if you have bikes).
- 10/10/14ADOLFO S.10/2014 friendly staff, great for tailwheel training etc.. Great town 3 miles away but taxi costs more than most meals and somewhat unreliable. Tourists prices. Shame.
- 11/8/13MICHAEL T.Very friendly service at the counter. Jeff, GBR's A&P/IA is great and an expert in repairing anything Piper. His labor rates are very reasonable.
