I am here at Skyport to obtain my instrument rating, having earned my PPL in my home state of Washington last year. My experience so far has been nothing short of spectacular! Having flown 1970's model 172's with umpteen thousand hours on them, to being able to fly beautiful new Cessna 172's with glass cockpit and autopilot is Great! The entire facility is conducive to learning. The staff and instructors are top notch and customer service is unmatched. I am using my Veterans benefits for my training, and could not be more satisfied. AOPA articles or youtube videos do not do Skyport justice, it has to be seen to believe. Flight training or just stopping by on a cross country or local, you will be impressed!

They always go the extra mile and a half to make sure that you are professionally taken care of, no matter what you need. John and the employees at the FBO are first rate, professional, and friendly.

Dropped in unannounced twice and the linemen were ready and professional. No ramp fee and competitive fuel pricing. They were very helpful when I ended up having to stay due to weather. They arranged an excellent hotel (Country Inn & Suites) and a rental car. Beautiful new facility... A must see! Great experience and look forward to dropping in again.

I came into San Marcos airport after declaring an emergency and flying to the closest airport I could. I ended up over at Redbird where I met one of the most professional and helpful groups of folks you will ever find. I would recommend Redbird Skyport to anyone looking at flying in to the San Antonio/Austin area. Great folks out there, and a world-class facility.

Fantastic FBO--extremely accommodating--even for a non-corporate Mooney Driver!! First class treatment from initial contact, till the day I left. John, the FBO manager, was extremely helpful for me in my situation: In late December, I had to drop off my Mooney for extended maintenance at SWTA on field. Due to my work schedule I could only arrive over the weekend when SWTA was closed. John made sure I had a hangar to keep my Mooney in overnight and took care of bringing it over to SWTA the next business morning. Then, when similar circumstances arose on the pickup a month later--John took great care of me again. What a relief!! Outstanding service. Redbird Skyport will be my only FBO choice when I fly into San Marcos. Great linemen, fantastic gals at the desks--and did I mention, some of the coolest simulators I've seen for the G/A crowd. Oh, and very reasonable gas prices and a Saturday Brunch too!

Upon landing, I told the ground controller that we were going to Berry Aviation. I got taxi instructions (told to take Alpha to parking) and was chugging along when a "Follow Me" parking vehicle flags me down. Being unfamiliar with the field, and being on taxiway Alpha, I figured it was from Berry. I started following them, and the ground controller asked again where I was going. It turns out the ground crew from Redbird has made it a habit to flag down any plane on the taxiway. The guy at Berry said they'll even try to flag down planes that have "Berry Aviation" written on them. If the ground controller hadn't noticed Redbird was trying to steal my business, I would have unnecessarily gone through my whole shut-down procedure, then had to start back up just to taxi another mile. When it comes to FBO's, you usually can't go wrong. However, I will never ever give my business to Redbird if they chose unethical practices like this.Response from John Koenreich, Manager/Director, Redbird Skyport, Inc. As a world-class facility committed to excellence, it is our goal to provide the best customer service to all our visitors. To that end, it is our policy to greet all aircraft approaching our ramp with a clearly marked "Skyport" follow-me vehicle. It is never our intent to distract or mislead the pilot in command of any aircraft and Mr. Urschel's comments are appreciated. It is our desire to earn Mr. Urschel's future business and invite him to visit us on his next trip to HYI.

Arrived in a Cessna 340 twice today to pick up and drop off pax. Best FBO I've ever experienced. Brand new, less than two weeks old; literally red carpet service. Adam and Moses are pro linemen that really know their stuff. Evelyn, Monica - Thanks for putting up with me! John Koenreich is the nicest FBO manager on the face of this planet. Roger Sharp is on the field and lives up to his last name. Last of my preaching goes like this: If you've ever wanted to fly a full motion sim and didn't think you could afford it think again. I believe they go for $55/hr and they are brand new! Do yourself a favor and check this place out!

Just visited this new FBO/Flight School. We were greeted with the Red Carpet Service on our arrival. Be sure to fill out the Reservation Form online... It is an easy way to let them know you are coming! We had great service, had a tour of the new facility. The SkyPort Galley is not open yet, but is due to open soon! I will be back to check that out. A drop in fuel prices today... Make it the cheapest Full Service on the field.

Beautiful new facility. We received the red carpet treatment for service and a pleasing price on fuel as well. This is my new default stop when visiting the area.
