Great service on return from OSH, fast and attentive fuel service at reasonable prices. Nice restaurant with southern hospitality next to terminal.

We had a flight of 5 Ercoupes, a Tiger and an RV flying in to eat at the restaurant. We called ahead to see if several of us could get fuel after 5 (about 5:45), and they said they would wait. When we fueled, they charged EACH plane a $10 callout fee! Had they told us they would do this, we would not have fueled there. Had they only charged $10 for all of us it would have been OK, but this seemed a bit much. I will not be buying fuel there any more.
Response from Ken Newcom, Airport Manager, Walnut Ridge Regional Airport
I am the airport Manager and have read what was said about callout fee. I will check out what the reason was for the charge on each aircraft. At that time of day were you all from another local airport in those types of aircraft? Please call me at (870) 886-5432 or e-mail me at wraaf@bscn.Com with more information.

On a recent trip to Waco stopped at KARG. Staff was friendly and attentive. Price of fuel was below market and got in and 110 gallons of fuel in 30 minutes. Great stop going south from the great lakes.

Ken and his folks took care of us this last week when we were in the area to attend a funeral. We couldn’t ask for more cooperation or better service.

Stopped in the end of August, planned (plus AWOS saying lightning distant west). W/B limitations made me specify exactly how much fuel, which the crew happily pumped. Waiting out the storm at the museum and restaurant, the airport manager voluntarily kept an eye on the weather radar. He saw a break, came looking for us, and got us on our way with a smile and a wave. Great folks! Will always stop when en route. Excellent place to stop.

Great folks. Stopped by for fuel on my way from TX to IN. Fuel prices are great and FBO is friendly. I got a quick turn. Like this place enough to come back through on my way home.

Flew in on 3/29/07. You have to eat at the Parachute Inn. Best aviation dining atmosphere I've ever experienced. We dined in the 737 part of the restaurant. There is also a military aviation museum right across from the restaurant. Walnut Ridge is a must-stop if you're in the area.

Nice airport with lots of runways. Ate at the restaurant on the field. Nice atmosphere. Food was average, but worth trying. I will be back. Fridays is the catfish buffet and Saturday is seafood buffet.

Great people and great FBO. Stopped in for fuel and lunch at the unique restaurant on our way to TX. Nice facility and good fuel prices.

I used Walnut Ridge for a fuel stop to and from TN. Very nice facility and great customer service. Fuel price very reasonable. I like the fact that they have three runways. I'll stop here again:)

Good stop for fuel. Old Army Air Base, 3 runways to choose from. Nice folks at FBO. Will stop again.

This is a VERY friendly FBO. They stayed open late for us without hesitation of a fee. Fuel was cheap too. This will be a candidate for my next midwestern fuel stop on the way to the west coast. See you soon...

Lots of long concrete, beautiful terminal, great service, neat museum, friendly people, and good prices on fuel (if you can say that). Well worth the stop.

This was a planned fuel stop and go on 5/29/2006 but weather en route to Texas required a longer stay. The FBO's posted closing time was 5PM. When it was obvious that I was not going to get out before then, I asked Ken Newcom when he was closing. He said, "When the last customer leaves". What a guy! Finally departed at 7 PM. Definitely would stop here again. Was disappointed that the 737 Diner was closed (holiday) but gives me an excuse to come back. This is a gem of an FBO.

Stopped here with my flight team to wait out some low ceilings. Excellent and clean facility. The lady was at our planes ready to start fueling as the props stopped spinning. Several couches made for a comfortable stay. Furthermore, they tossed us the keys to the museum and allowed us to tour. Very friendly staff. Needless to say we stopped on our way back through. HIGHLY recommend this FBO.

I can't say enough good things about this FBO. I landed here for fuel and to wait-out stormy weather. Line crewman was on the spot with fast, inexpensive, full-serve fuel. Nice clean facility with fast computer weather, snack lounge, separate quiet pilot lounge with sofas for a quick nap, crew car, plus a restaurant and museum next door. Most importantly, however, was the friendly, can-do, "how can I be of service" attitude of the FBO staff member. What more could you want? Highly recommended!

Flew here for my first solo cross country! Was really hoping to have lunch at the Parachute Inn, but it was closed (Sunday). Gary fueled me up and offered the courtesy car. I didn't want to drive into town though, so I just hung out with him for a few minutes and chatted. Super nice guy! This is a really neat airport! Their fuel price was exactly what AirNav.Com showed and was cheaper than anyone around. Great experience!

What a great place to stop- check out the WWII aviation museum - very friendly service. I will be back!

The FBO here was one of most friendly and service oriented I have seen. Fuel was very reasonable-the 737 diner is not to be missed. I will go out my way to stop here again.

One of the nicest FBOs that we have visited. When we had problem making a cell phone call, we were told that the FBO provided free long distance. At the invitation of another pilot, we took the huge courtesy van to town for a quick McDonald lunch. We came back from lunch just in time for the Parachute Inn's open house & enjoyed the grand tour of the tastefully decorated dining areas inside the Boeing 737. This is one the most memorable stops in our 5 years of flying.

My dad and I flew into Walnut Ridge on Christmas 2003, these PPL where the best, the FBO was open with a fresh pot of coffee to boot. Their courtesy car was available at first then I lock their keys in it, but very greatful for them staying open on a holiday...... Thanks guys you're the best......
