Okay, so they're not a very sophisticated FBO... But they're nice people with fuel prices about 80 cents a gallon less expensive than Sanford for the same gas. No ramp fees either.
Response from David Yocum, DeLand Jet Center
Thanks for your comments but we do charge a ramp fee. If you buy fuel from the Self-serve or Full-serve we waive one-day ramp fee.

Can't say enough to praise this FBO. July 21, got diverted to Deland due to weather - couldn't get to Sanford. Weather lasted so long we ended up getting a hotel. Anyway, Donna and Kim, together with a gent whose name I don't recall, made us feel like royalty. Donna stayed LONG past closing time while we tried to arrange rental cars, taxis and finally a hotel. She drove us to the hotel in her own car in her own time. They offered us everything they could. Marvelous. They made a frustrating overnight diversion a pleasure. Next morning we re-fueled there and truck was at the plane in moments. Top-notch outfit!

"Guaranteed" doesn't mean guaranteed. AirNav says $3.29; I paid $3.50 just a couple hours ago. It's just a matter of time before they have another accident there. While I was fueling my plane I watched 8 skydivers descend into the pattern with 5 planes. When I went to leave I announced my intentions, pulled onto the runway and started my takeoff roll. About 100 feet into my takeoff roll the skydive plane pulled onto the runway from the intersection in front of me and took off -- no radio call or anything! I won't be back -- too busy with too much mixed traffic to be safe.

I visited DeLand Jet Center from July 1st thru July 7th '06 at their "new" facility at the north end of the field. I was apprehensive after I read the previous review but found them VERY helpful and friendly. I would strongly recommend Dave Yocum (DeLand Jet Center Customer Service Manager) and his staff if you visit DED.

KDED Deland: DEAD would be a better designator for this place. No service. Nobody to park plane. Nobody answering Unicom as to where to park; I used both 123.075 and 123.3. I taxied to the Southwest end of the East ramp and back to the northeast end just looking for an FBO (other than a flight school). Pulled up next to a Gas truck with operator; he just stared at me, no response from him. I picked a spot to park, which turned out to be nowhere near an FBO. Flight School instructors(?) (3 stripes on shoulders), just glared. What an experience! Deland will not see me again; I will go out of my way to avoid this place.
