Had an alternator failure en route from TRI to LBE (Wednesday, June 11, late afternoon). Diverted to Beckley and a frustrating situation quickly became a very positive experience. Upon landing, we taxied to Albatross Air, Inc. Where Joe and his capable young assistant identified a broken alternator belt caused by a failed alternator bearing. Tim Kearns, the owner, had a replacement in and installed by early the next AM and off we went. The entire staff went out of their way to make us feel at home and helped us arrange lodging and transportation. I cannot recommend these fine people highly enough.

Landed here 12/14/07 due to weather. Was trapped for three days. (VFR) Line guys were helpful, provided transportation to and from hotel (Sleep Inn 59.99 a night, nice, clean), Fueled plane promptly, $4.55gal, good service, friendly bunch of guys. The day I left, I needed to de-ice my piper 140, $50.00 for hour & half in heated hangar (Albatross Air). Ate at the diner in the main terminal..(OK) Weather computer leaves much to be desired! This place is OK as a fuel stop, you don't want to be trapped here!

Our impression was that this is a very limited service FBO (seemed like purely a fuel operation) although the one individual we encountered was courteous and helpful. He did find us additional ropes when the ones at the very distant tie down spot came up short. We had no assistance in locating a parking spot or tying down and had to walk a most substantial distance to the nearest field access point and rental car. On departure we also had carry all our baggage a very long distance back to the plane as there was no convenient way to gain access back on to the ramp area with our rental car. The AVIS operation here has pretty limited hours probably modeled around the couple of daily airline flights. Call ahead and check. They will leave keys with the attendant at the fuel shack.

Landed for fuel and food. Told the lineman to fill to the slots. Restaurant was closed (Sunday) but there are vending machines. Came back to find my plane was filled. Manager discounted the overfilled amount. For that, I give them an A+. I will be back.

Great service at this airport. FYI, runway 10, doesn’t come up short :-) as there is a 700-foot canyon at the very end of the approach end of the runway. Quite intimidating to see tree tops at the end of this runway especially to a flatlander pilot like myself.

Friendly service with fast turn-around. Weather computer is in the main terminal a few hundred feet away from the FBO. Charleston approach provides fine coverage.

I flew into Beckley around 9pm on a Friday night returning to Toledo from Hilton Head. The line staff was very fast and friendly. I will make this my stop when flying between Toledo and HH every time.

This is a fine place to stop; the line service is great and they are open 24 hours a day. Avis car rental was on-site and helpful. Beckley is an interesting place with a lot of variety to offer -- skiing in winter, hiking, fishing and whitewater rafting in summer. Don't miss the Exhibition Coal Mine where you can take a trip inside a formerly operational mine during the summer and see how techniques and machinery changed over the years. There are also outdoor dramas during the summer.

I'll echo Andrew Wilkens comments. On the Friday before Mother's Day, while en route to NE PA, my engine block cracked and forced a landing at BKW. The folks in the line shack got me into parking, called Albatross Air owner Tim Kearns, and showed me where the rental cars were before they shut down for the night. The airplane has been at the airport since getting a rebuilt engine, overhauled prop, exhaust, engine mount, and accessories installed. The folks at Albatross Air (Tim, Joe, Steve, Rachelle) have all been outstanding. I cannot tell you how fortunate I was to have found these folks under such difficult circumstances.

Had a little problem a couple of months while en route to a destination east of this airport. Ended up making a precautionary landing here. I believe the lineman's name was Frosty and he was AWESOME with helping me. Airport manager even came out to check on me and see if there was anything he could do. A local hangar tenant brought me into town to get something to eat. I don't think there is a friendlier airport. Thanks for all the help!

Great service and fun flight into the mountains. Not much of an "FBO" though. This and Lewisburg, WV are very scenic locations to fly into.
