City of Wells

at Wells Municipal Airport/Harriet Field

No-frills, cheap fuel stop. Working phone, and toilet in a little shack by the hangars. If you want to be in and out very quickly, this is your place.

Morning stop for reasonable fuel price on way to Oshkosh. Was informed by some locals they were closing the runway in an hour for Drag Racing (This would be about noon on a Friday) and no NOTAM.

Arrived LWL the afternoon of 7/15/08, 15 knot almost direct crooswind. Very turbulent and a challenge but the nice wide runway helped. As "Old Bob" Siegfried, (I know him and he goes by "Old Bob") said, the ammenities aren't great, but are there, including a phone to call FSS. The fuel price is definitely worth the stop in the event it isn't too far out of the way. The fuel system worked good but the ground wire attachment end was broken. An ASOS there would be a good idea. Winds broadcast at Elko to the West, and at Wendover to the East, were far different than at LWL.

Stopped on June 26th for the cheap fuel! $4.25 as advertised. Place was totally deserted and looked forlorn. The only facilities are in a small line shack about fifty yards across the ramp from the fuel pump. A single toilet and not the cleanest I have seen, but when ya gotta go, ya gotta go!

Purchased 69 gallons of 100LL 24th April and fortunately no contamination, fuel looked clean. Local resident reported he had recently observed work being performed on the pumps, perhaps that cleared up the contamination noted previously. Great field, friendly folks.

Runway is in great condition. Fuel is cheap, but I think it may be old or have a little water. I drained an abnormal amount of sediment/water after refueling.

Nice runway but radio operator had gone to town and were unable to tell us they were working on the pumps so no fuel today. Should be all fixed by now... 'Thanks anyway and 'Next time'.

Airport caretaker Howard is now gone. However, Wells airport now (6/20/07) has 24/7 credit card service for 100LL avgas. Due to fuel price increases 100LL is now $3.95 per gallon. Still lower than most anyplace else these days.
