City of Hot Springs (FBO)

at Memorial Field Airport

From Larry Frasier on 11-Oct-2009

Hot Springs is a great destination. Arriving from Houston and flying over Lake Degrey and the ridgeline to the south of the field is awesome. Lakes are everywhere. You will want to explore the airspace around the field. Courtesy car for McClards BBQ. I love flying into KHOT

The FBO was very helpful and friendly, but the town seemed very dilapidated. We even overheard a gentleman one morning at breakfast talking to someone else saying they had to do something about the town - it had not grown in 20 years. Needs pressure washing and spiffing up for sure.

We arrived Sunday afternoon after the Hertz counter was closed. The FBO staff loaned us the crew car to go to dinner. Then someone was able to contact Emily at Hertz who came in on her DAY OFF to get us a car! Talk about excellent service. Thursday 7/16/09 had very strong storms with 60kt winds. The line crew tied down our Cessna as tight as could be and we had no problems or damage to the plane. We will be back for sure.

Visited KHOT on 3/17/2009. I have been there before and great service. They are quick to let you know where to and help in anyway. Great service, Great airport.

Went into Hot Springs to pick up a Graceflight passenger. Sent fax to ask for a quick turn with fuel. Almost got the plane stopped before the truck pulled up. Quickest service I've ever had. Excellent service and FBO.

Flew into Hot Springs for dinner at "Porterhouse." Line crew greeted us with smiles. Best courtesy car that I have ever drove. Car only had 800 miles. Linemen even gave a list of other places to dine. Definitely will go back. If you don't plan on eating there, the approach to the airport is worth the trip. Awesome view.
 

From Judy Parrish on 15-Jul-2008

Very nice people. They helped me get a taxi to the hotel, and were generally very welcoming.
 

From Ed Owens on 30-Jun-2008

Stopped in HOT for the night to wait for a cold front to move further south. Line and office folks were helpful, steering us to the Austin hotel in town with a shuttle from the airport and a pilot discount. Hot Springs itself is somewhat "faded" from what was clearly once a booming downtown. Pretty dead on a Sunday night. Nice folks though. I noticed that they charged a tie down fee despite my buying fuel.
 

From Zach Smith on 27-Apr-2008

Very helpful staff on the ramp and in the office. Airplane fueled and ready to go less than five minutes after arrival. Plenty of fast food within a mile or two of the airport, and a clean courtesy car to get there. Retired Embraer Brasilias parked on the ramp, beautiful scenery, and a helpful FBO. Definitely worth the stop.
 

From Carroll Allison on 23-Jun-2007

Nice airport, nice people but will not update their fuel price. Maybe because it is $4.83 for 100LL. Everywhere else is in the $3.00 plus category except maybe Little Rock.
 

From Ken Bruggers on 21-May-2007

Nicest Courtesy Car I've ever had at a small airport FBO. No Kidding! The windows worked, the A/C worked, and you felt you were driving a real car, not a death trap. I bought only 16 gallons for the RV-4, but the courtesy car was offered with no hesitation. Pretty airport to fly into.
 

From Chet Cromer on 19-Apr-2007

Hot Springs is a great town to visit. There is a lot to do and enjoy. The FBO was helpful to set up a $60 rate at the Austin Hotel downtown. The fuel prices at HOT are a bit high, but not more than I expected at a destination airport.
 

From Joe Champagne on 07-Apr-2007

To be sure George has been here for a very long time. His knowledge of the area is an encyclopedia volume. As for a crew car, first come fist serve but they don't have a barn full of cars. What FBO does? Only a couple so be it...They are clean and in great shape. Fuel is reasonable, for these days, and everyone there has a great attitude and working relationship. Stop here and don't let the grouches stop you. Good folks.
 

From Randy Lam on 21-Mar-2007

There this past weekend, pretty busy because of horse races. Bought fuel because lineman told us crew car was available. Went into FBO and NO crew car available. At that point we were ready to leave, but had to wait 10 minutes to get rung up for fuel purchase. Paid for fuel and had to squeeze between hangar and fuel truck to taxi, because ramp was congested. Nice facility, but don't count on crew car or a quick turn.
 

From Darren Byrd on 10-Jan-2007

Had to divert to KHOT after an electrical problem en route to Memphis. Greeted on the ramp and chocked off. They were a bit slow with helping to getting a repair. The first company offered was slow to respond and didn't do GA work. After much waiting the second company (Airborne Services) had the parts in stock and were eager to help. The manager at Airborne said the airport GM must have a thing for them as they are always last to be called. Crew car was offered without problem. General airport services were good with a small town charm.
 

From Stewart Riggs on 18-Nov-2006

These guys were prompt and treated my 172 like it was a G5... I hate that cliché but I also can't say enough about this airport. Nice FBO as well.
