  We stop here every year on the way up to Oshkosh - FBO is well run and organized. They even offer Cadillac crew cars. Great for a picnic lunch as they have a new wood table and a variety of comfortable Adirondack chairs.
 
From Clarence Lambe on 02-Aug-2013

 
  This is my highly preferred stop on my way from NC to KOSH and back. You will not find friendlier or better service from every member of the staff. I have had to stay overnight numerous times due to weather. Rex has always gone out of his way to help arrange accommodations and a courtesy car. In addition, Cook also happens to be one of the best values in General Aviation. This is the place to stop!
 
From Robert Simmermon on 14-May-2013

 
  A special thanks to Rex and the staff at Cook for your friendly and accommodating service! I highly recommend this FBO.
 
From Matthew Marek on 02-Apr-2013

 
  Very friendly staff with top notch service. Courtesy cars are pretty much always available and are extremely nice. I fly down here a lot to visit my brother at school and I will most definitely come back to COOK.
 
From Dennis B. Boykin IV on 22-Aug-2012

 
  8/19/2012 Fuel & Lunch Stop: nice people, fast service, Cadillac crew car (and, OBTW, EVERYTHING worked on the car), pre-programmed GPS, directions to restaurants, decent fuel price, and really nice facilities. I dare you to find a better place to go within 500 miles!
 
From Jim McIrvin on 04-Aug-2012

 
  Called ahead to arrange quick turn after 8 pm due to a major re-route for thunderstorms -- 15 minutes from brakes set to brake release!! Outstanding service by the 2 gentlemen, and a great fuel price as well -- thanks!
 
From William Judge on 05-Jun-2012

 
  Fast service, nice staff, decent price, pretty good combination.
 
From Charles White on 08-Apr-2012

 
  Stopped here on the way to Sun N Fun and stayed overnight...This is a great FBO, service was excellent and the crew car was the nicest one I have had the pleasure of using..Very helpful in every way possible.. Thanks
 
From Kevin Tomlinson on 31-Mar-2012

 
  As imaging pilots, FBO's are crucial to us and we've been to countless but Cook Aviation was by far one of the best yet! We were there a month doing aerial survey work, and every day was just as nice as the last. There is only one choice at KBMG, and its Cook! Thank you again, Kevin and Andrew from NSA will miss you guys!
 
From C. Bud Symond on 12-Dec-2011

 
  Once again I have to say that KBMG is one of the best if not the best fuel stop in the Midwest. I have been stopping there regularly now for several years and somehow they have better service each and every time. Great cookies too. My hats off to everyone there for a wonderful aviation experience. Thank You
 
From Peter Meier on 17-Oct-2011

 
  I have used Cook multiple times since my son started at IU. The service has always been exemplary and I've never been disappointed. I have used their rental and courtesy cars without any issues.
 
From Vince Giampa on 07-Aug-2011

 
  On a recent trip from the West coast to the East and on return, I made it a point to stop at Cook Aviation as I do every time I'm in the area. The service is nothing but the best, the staff is friendly and helpful, especially Jason and Greg. Other FBO's would do well to use Cook Aviation as an example of exquisite customer service.
 
From Phil Hale on 01-Aug-2011

 
  Great FBO with very good service. I stopped here on my way to Airventure/Northern MI due to weather and the staff was very helpful. Seeing I had great service I made it a fuel stop on my way back to Florida
 
From C. Bud Symond on 25-Jul-2011

 
  Cook Aviation has been my regular Midwest fuel stop for several years now and they are always friendly and professional, this is one of the best stop over/refuel destinations in the Midwest and I would recommend them to anyone. My personal thanks to the entire staff.
 
From Steve Bruno on 13-Jun-2011

 
  Surely one of the finest FBO's in the country! Stunningly efficient service, fair pricing and exceptional facilities. What more could one ask for? Highly recommended!
 
From Tim Morris on 12-Jun-2011

 
  Arrived in Hawker 800 and could not be happier with the staff and facility. Fuel price was outstanding! I had a cooler that was leaking water and line staff ran me to the store real quick to get a new one.. These guys are just plain FIRST CLASS! I go to dozens of FBO's some weeks and I can assure you that Rex runs an operation that will not be beat! It's not a huge building but they make the best of what they have... It's what you would want your home airport to be like..
 
From Steve Cronje on 09-May-2011

 
  Thunderstorms along the way caused an unplanned stop at Cook Aviation on April 28th 2011. We were immediately met, and offered assistance finding a place to stay. Whilst being refueled, we considered our options in the well- equipped facility, and decided to stop for the night. When the president, Mr. Rex Hinkle, heard us speaking to the desk clerk about finding a place to stay, he came out of his office, and offered to take us to our hotel, as he was on his way home! He drove out onto the tarmac, and helped us load our gear. Rex gave us dining options, helped us carry our bags into the hotel, even spoke to the desk clerk to ensure we had rooms. Then he handed us his card, and offered to pick us up in the morning! We co-coordinated things so he would pick us up on his way to work, which he did, driving us right up to our plane (a '74 Skylane) again. What a classy operation!! We cannot say enough good things about these folks.
 
From Ed Crane on 08-Mar-2011

 
  Arrived late. Found handy list of hotels listed on FBO window. Next morning Cook picked us up at the hotel and we were back in the air in no time. Very friendly place.
 
From Tom Skaff on 10-Feb-2011

 
  I tied down at Cook for an extended stay. Weather was terrible resulting in inches of ice on the plane and locking the tires to the ground. The line guys went out unsolicited and by hand chipped away at the ice on the ground to free the plane. No tie down fees and good fuel prices. One of the best FBO's I've eve used.
 
From Jerry Green on 15-Jan-2011

 
  Very professional and prompt service during our short stop there. Well stocked array of pilot supplies as well. Lowest fuel price on our whole trip across the country.
 
From Patrick McCarthy on 09-Jan-2011

 
  I have used Cook 6 or 7 times over the last 2 years and they have been very helpful and always make their courtesy car available for our use, and provide very quick and friendly fuel service.
 
From Jeff Weller on 22-Nov-2010

 
  I've had two experiences here, both good. I flew in many years ago on a bitter cold winter afternoon as a student pilot in a C-150. I didn't need any fuel but wanted to use the courtesy car to get some Mc'Dees in town. I was 20 at the time and couldn't use the car, so the owner of the FBO drove me there himself. Then upon departing I couldn't get the airplane restarted, so they called their competitor and arranged for a mechanic to help with the restart. I wasn't charged for any of this. More recently I flew in on a training flight (am now a commercial student) to grab a drink of water, check the weather, etc and didn't need fuel. Again, wasn't charged a dime. I like this FBO because they don't seem interested in nickel and dime people.
 
From Philip Greenspun on 15-Oct-2010

 
  We asked for a quick turn in a small bizjet and they had us fueled about 10 minutes after we'd shut down. The guys also went out and picked us up some lunch from a place 3 miles down the road (we'd called in advance from the Satphone). Good selection of caramel candies too.
 
From Daniel Patton on 18-Sep-2010

 
  I have flown into Bloomington and parked at Cook Aviation eight times over the past 3 months visiting family at IU. Each visit is the same; top notch service from the entire staff. Everyone is friendly and ready to assist with just about anything. Highly recommended.
 
From Frank Dzwielewski on 03-Sep-2010

 
  Stopped for fuel enroute from Tulsa to Columbus. Needed a quick turn. Cook Aviation did a great job. The plane was ready before I was. Thank you!
