Comments
Great place to avoid
AWOS was 1/2 function. Couldn't hear wind or density alt, critical on hot-humid summer day w/scattered convective.
"Self-serve", but an employee watched/crowded the process, basically looked over my shoulder while filling; distracted into too much fuel in one tank; close to max takeoff weight w/o cushion.
Hungry, asked if anything to eat: "No".
2 other people on bench outside office, unfriendly and sarcastic.
No trashcan outside. OK, but the office was open & we had a few little things we wanted to dispose of due to weight etc; handlebar (?) mustache guy tells them, "you fly it in, you fly it out", like backpacking. When I heard that & peeked in, handlebar says (laughing sarcastically) "just throw it on the floor". I didn't do that, but on looking in I noticed what looked a lot like snacks, coffee... We left.
Never seen anything like it in 31yrs/1500hrs of flying to many small fields.
Not so bad
Night had fallen early due to the the winter solstice. Found the fuel and filled up. Lights were off, but I checked the doors and found that there were people attending the FBO. I think they were closing up for the day, but I found them reasonably friendly. Clean restroom and comfortable facility.
