DON'T BUY FUEL HERE. The self-serve fuel is the most expensive around (with the exception of Norfolk International/KORF) do yourself and your wallet a favor. Go to nearby KSFQ or KFKN. More often that not those two airports are $.70 cheaper per gallon that KCPK.

Flew in to visit a buddy and they topped off my tanks and waived my tiedown fee. Nice little airport will use again when visiting friends. Out there great approach with green trees all around however it was fairly busy for a non-towered, lots of aircraft on UNICOM. Use caution flying into this airport.

Flew into CPK on July 31, 2010 for granddaughter's birthday. Rented a car (Hertz) at Horizon Aviation FBO. Returned car in 5 hours having driven 50 miles--put two gallons of gas in it, charged 37 bucks. No problem. Now, today I get an e-mail from Hertz listing charges for "fuel and service" $48, total rental $85. I won't be back.

Flew in with an EIGHT SHIP formation from the KEYSTONE FLIGHT of Central PA for fuel. OK stop. Never saw anyone so we refueled ourselves and departed. Plenty of ramp space, good facilities, nice FBO and snack area. Airport is very isolated - but met all our needs for our trip. A good "gas and go" stop.

**STAY AWAY** what a mismanaged FBO. We bought 250 gallons of Jet A. Never Again! A great runway and taxiway and the service ends there. Airport is 6 miles from anywhere. No Crew Car, No Ice, No Coffee, and No computer with Internet. Pilot Lounge has 2 chairs and is hotter than the rest of the building and smells like they don't take out the trash. I watched a guy in a 182 land and tie down by himself only to have the mechanic/line guy ask him to move it because the spot was the flight school spot. When the 182 guy departed the spot he moved from was still empty. The staff could really care less that you are there. Had to rent a car to go get lunch I asked how much is the car-she says $30 a day. I say OK now I am billed $100 for 11 miles in a KIA. That was our last visit to Horizon Air in Chesapeake. If you have to go there carry as much fuel in as you can. Landmark Aviation at Norfolk at least has service to offer. Too bad--we could have given you a lot of business over the next 2 years.

I stayed in the area overnight and the staff was very professional and friendly. The charge for the overnight tie down was waived because I refueled. While I was registering and signing the car rental paperwork, the car was in front of the terminal idle and the air conditioner was cooling the interior of the car. I would definitely return when I get a chance. The people with negative comments should give more details of their experience. And remember, just because there is no tower it doesn't mean you can taxi into position with an airplane on short final. I saw a Skylane do this to a female instructor and her student this past Thursday. Some visitors can be unfriendly too.

Nice Airport, friendly staff. Quick service. Stuck on the ground for 6 hours due to numerous weather cells springing up. But the immaculate pilot lounge and sleep room were put to good use!

This is the worst managed FBO this professional pilot has ever had the unfortunate experience of working with and I see over 100 airports a year. Steer clear.

Stopped at KCPK for the weekend. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Fuel prices are reasonable for this day and age. I would certainly recommend Chesapeake!
