Truly top notch service, and while the facilities are not much to brag about, they more than make up for it with their charm. It doesn't hurt that they have excellent fuel prices as well.

We stopped in with two Bonanza's on the way to Sun n Fun. They are hands down the most professional, friendly, and supportive FBO in the country. The ramp help was on the wing as soon as the prop stopped asking what service we needed. Even if we wanted the windows cleaned! The skydiving receptionist was quick with the courtesy van keys and directions to lunch. Weather prevented us from stopping on the way home, but we will be back. Thanks!

Moton Field is a must see! It was an honor to stand where the Tuskegee Airman trained. Golden Eagle Aviation is top notch. Lineman was out and waiting with a truck. I was fueled up and ready to go by the time I finished my "pit stop." Fuel prices are reasonable. The staff was as friendly as any FBO I have ever visited. Absolute 5 stars. Come and see!

I very much enjoyed my fuel stop at Moton Field on Nov. 19. The museum is great. Minnie and Sylvester provide great service and hospitality and a car to get lunch in town. I highly recommend Golden Eagle Aviation. The fuel price was very reasonable too.

Flew into Tuskegee (Moton Field) today with the family for a trip to Skydive Tuskegee. Craig at Golden Eagle treated us like kings. He parked the plane for us then set us up in the courtesy car. We made it back in time to do a quick tour through the museum before they closed and he even lent us the golf cart to ride over there. You don't find service like this anymore. They have several new construction projects about to get started on the field with an addition to the museum and FBO that will only make the place more beautiful. We will definitely be back!!!

Golden Eagle Aviation by far is one of the best FBO's in southern Alabama. It has an awesome pilot lounge with very outstanding comfort from the couches, TV, and free popcorn. Also the employees show great hospitality and service to each one of their customers..

Had a great experience with Golden Eagle. Fuel price as advertised. Over the top hospitality. The facilities were clean and well cared for. They even lent us a spare golf cart so we could ride over to the Tuskegee Airman museum (it would have been a very short walk). The museum is well worth the visit but having Golden Eagle on the field makes this a great stop regardless. I highly recommend stopping here if you’re in the area.

On January 19th, 2012 I flew 5 wounded United States Marines to Tuskegee for a hunting trip. I was part of an airlift for Veterans Airlift Command. I had flown into Tuskegee before on training flights and had found that the hospitality and attention were superior to any "big box" FBO. Sylvester and Minnie are extremely gracious and welcoming, and willing to do whatever it takes to make a trip easy on all involved. The men that I transported were all recovering from wounds received in battle, and this trip was a welcome break from rehab. Sylvester and his crew went out of their way to makes these men feel like the hero's that they are. I will continue to use Golden Eagle whenever I am in the area.

On a cross country in our Sport Cub from NC to AZ, we were grounded by weather for 3 nights at Moton Field. Sylvester and Minnie made it the best part of the trip. They helped us explore the cultural history of Tuskegee, as well as the culinary highlights. And if you don't have time to go into town, there's a museum for the Tuskegee Airmen right on the field. When the rain passed, Sylvester improvised a preheating system to get the Cub started. The FBO staff makes this airport a great place to visit.

We travel frequently around the Southeastern United States and we are constantly greeted by warm and friendly staff at numerous FBOs, but we have to say that Golden Eagle takes their hospitality seriously. You'll be hard pressed to find another FBO anywhere that take care of you as they do. Oh, and you must do lunch at The Coop. OMG!

We stopped in the other morning to tour the Tuskegee hangar. There is no charge and it takes just over an hour to see. Minnie at Golden Eagle gave us directions to the truck stop for food, which was good. They have breakfast all day. Nice folks here.

Landed at Moton field after hours from New York and received excellent service. Sid and Minnie were waiting for us with welcoming smiles and a rented van to Birmingham. Our aircraft, a Mooney 20F was left there for a paint job. Red Tail of course. Minnie and Sid. Thanks for the patience and service. Henry Rey

An unpleasant experience...Apparently the line crew is trained to zero-out the fuel meter after refueling each tank and then to add up the various tanks for the total. I self-fueled the plane quickly running a single meter. They tried to add the fuel from one wing to the total for the entire plane effectively overcharging me by 50%. Fortunately, I caught the mistake but it took over 1/2 hour to correct the billing and void out the bad transaction. Not a pleasant experience. Check to make sure your fuel quantity is correct--you may have less than you expected from the fuel receipt.

We flew in two times this week with our Meridian for Jet A. The manager, Sylvester and his wife are absolutely wonderful and so was his weekend employee. We took a tour of the museum while the plane cooled. Best fuel price in the South East and all around a completely FIRST CLASS operation. The runway is in great shape. This is a must stop airport.

Tami and I stopped for fuel at Moton on Thursday 11/18/10 enroute from St Pete FL to Jackson TN. Golden Eagle's hospitality personified! By the time we left we had made wonderful new friends! Their first words were "Welcome to Moton and how may we be of service to you?" Those were not empty words. The renovations at Golden Eagle are going to make it first class. Fuel is more than reasonable, helpfulness cannot be underemphasized! This is one of those places I will not overfly in the future; I'm stopping to see friends and feel good. It was an honor to set foot on this hallowed ground of American history. I am so glad that the passion and means to preserve that are alive and well here. I cannot wait to return and see the Tuskegee Airmen Museum. Tami and I will be back, again and again. I promised Minnie a flight in my Skylane and I will keep that promise!

I have had many positive experiences at FBO's based on comments on AirNav. I have never been welcomed so warmly, made to feel like family, and had such attentive service and such cheap fuel at any other FBO in the county. Thanks, Sylvester and staff for providing such wonderful service. If my daughter chooses Auburn, you'll be seeing a lot more of us!

Stopped for fuel on Sunday, 10/31/10 in our Piper Meridian. Enjoyed absolutely superior service from J.R., he is an outstanding young man. Although the office was being remodeled, the facility was clean and well organized. Fuel prices were more than fair. We'll definitely be back on our next trip to Florida. Unhesitatingly recommend Golden Eagle!

I had to stop early before Montgomery to get fuel after hours and Sylvester and his wife came out on the 45min drive to put 20gal in my LSA. He was very friendly and made me feel OK about having him drive out. Lovely folks!
