Airport Information
Wilkes County Pilot Reviews:
Frank L.
May 30, 2025Good stop - heading from Cincinnati to Charleston. Friendly, professional, clean. 100LL prices were fine. Mountains to the northwest are lower than farther southwest, so simpler to get over VFR. I highly recommend and will absolutely be returning if the plan calls for it.

April 22, 2025When holding short of runway 19 on the first taxiway, trees block a large part of your view when looking for landing traffic on final, at least as of April, 2025. Otherwise, a very pretty airport with a good runway and taxiways!

January 13, 2025Runway and taxiways are in very fine condition. Usually quiet - never experienced a packed pattern.
