From Kent Magnuson on 16-Dec-2011

 
  Always a fav stop when passing thru the area with our N900NE. Great service throughout. Nice lobby for all pax and crew needs. Thanks folks. Well done.
 
From Marcus Williams on 23-Jul-2011

 
  One of the best large-airport, full-service FBOs I've ever seen. The staff is very helpful and managed a very quick turnaround and pax pickup. Pricing is comparable to or better than other Class B airports, and unlike many of those, here you really get what you're paying for! I would highly recommend them.
 
From Bo Harper on 18-Jul-2011

 
  Flew in, got great ramp help, and the meeting I did there went well, and smooth. Conference room was 5 Star! Fantastic facility and Staff- my Choice is to return here.
 
From Tom Udall on 12-Jul-2011

 
  Though I fly a Comanche, now I know how G-5 owners feel. The treatment was so good it was almost embarrassing, and their rental car price (and the car was upgraded) was cheaper than rentalcars.Com. They also set us up with an outstanding hotel room. Believe me, you can't do better than this.
 
From Leonard Ellis on 03-May-2011

 
  Wonderful, true Southern hospitality. Extremely accommodating, had the rental car ready to go (& loaded our luggage into the car while they fed us hamburgers), professional through and through. Will definitely stop here again on our next visit to Memphis.
 
From Trace Lewis on 18-Mar-2011

 
  One of my new favorite FBOs! We stopped in with a Seminole for fuel and dinner on our way to Chicago, and really enjoyed the excellent service, beautiful facility, and lack of ramp fees (with fuel purchased at an average price) here.
 
From Kent Magnuson on 04-Feb-2011

 
  In today for quik turn with our Turbo Commander N900NE and, as always, a 'best of' experience for pax and crew. Everything just right. Thanks folks. Well done.
 
From Marty McCasland on 30-Jan-2011

 
  I started to think we made a mistake heading into KMEM and parking at Wilson. While on with approach, I heard and saw no other single engine planes, it was all jets -- big jets. 'Pulled up at Wilson Air and multiple private jets parked around -- including a leased Airbus for an NBA team. Nevertheless, they treated me and my family with our little 180hp prop plane like we were in a G5. Jessica at the desk was especially kind and helpful -- even giving our kids goodie bags as we departed later that night. Very highly recommend / can't imagine what they could do better. Facilities are top-notch as well.
 
From Justin Hoffman on 23-Aug-2010

 
  Chose Wilson after reading all the great reviews on it. Arrived from FWS in the Debonair around 1230am on Monday morning (Sunday night) to rest for a little while and refuel. Taxied up and shut down under the canopy. There were, I think, just the three 3rd shift linemen there. Just asked for a simple 100LL top-off and they were very discrete and courteous. The facilities were VERY nice. I took an apple from the basket at the desk and rested in the pilot lounge for about an hour before paying the bill and firing up the engine. I was only charged the 36 gallons of LL. All quiet with No FedEx push on Sunday nights = I had the whole airport to myself when I landed just after midnight and when I launched at 3am! I want to see your day operation sometime, Wilson. I'll be back! =-)
 
From Kent Magnuson on 21-Jul-2010

 
  Wilson Air Center is a 'best of' nationwide for our needs. Thanks folks. Always a pleasant stop for our Turbo Commander N900NE.
 
From Chris Robin on 18-Jun-2010

 
  Beware $25 ramp fee and $15 per night fee. Cheaper to fly in and park at Key West.
 
From Kent Magnuson on 14-Jun-2010

 
  In for quick turn yesterday with our Turbo Commander N900NE and had best of everything. Thanks folks. Well done.
 
From Jean Morin on 08-May-2010

 
  We came from Montreal May 2nd in our 182 for a 3-day meeting in Memphis, 24 hours after the massive rainstorms. Hangar was a must even at $75 per day. The staff was very cordial and the service impeccable. We felt very secure in all aspect and would come back without any hesitation. Wilson is a first class operation.
 
From Will Stroud on 05-Apr-2010

 
  Flew in for Easter Weekend. Great but Expensive Service. Class B airport with a local feel! Keep up the good work.
 
From Philip Greenspun on 11-Mar-2010

 
  Limped in at night with a 2005 Cirrus SR20 and no main alternator (was ferrying the plane with its new owner; the alternator lasted 3 flight hours following the time of sale). For a $50 callout charge, Anthony came in from home and started debugging the airplane, including checking with API in Memphis to see if they had a replacement in stock. The mechanics at Wilson do more work on jets than on pistons but they are amply competent and very careful. I spent a lot of time observing Anthony work and talking with some of the other folks regarding troubleshooting the Cirrus's somewhat complex (for a piston) electrical system. I'd say that everything went at least as well and as fast as it would have at an official Cirrus service center. Memphis Center had recommended coming to KMEM after we told them of the failure and I don't think that they steered us wrong. I was initially skeptical about getting good single-engine piston airplane service at a huge jet airport, but was proved wrong.
 
From C Mills on 01-Mar-2010

 
  I was flying over KMEM and needed to relay a message to someone at another airport. I radioed Wilson and got Quinton on the line. He took down the information and made the phone call for me. Thanks for your help the other night Quinton. We look forward to stopping at Wilson KMEM in the future.
 
From Aaron Tarlow on 28-Feb-2010

 
  Flew into Memphis for Barbecue, landed runway 27 (quickest and easiest way for access). Received excellent service from Matt and David on the line. Jessica Huff was extremely hospitable, she provided directions to Central Barbecue, two cards for free appetizers, and the keys to the crew car. When we arrived back I had them fuel the aircraft and was directed to a very well equipped pilots lounge. I paid for the fuel and got the AOPA discount (0.15 per gallon) everyone on the trip agreed Wilson Air is top notch, I know I can't wait for a trip to take me near Memphis again.
 
From Jeff Mackey on 20-Feb-2010

 
  I am always happy when I go to Wilson, this last visit was no exception. Let me borrow a crew car for a couple of hours, promptly fueled my plane as requested, and service with a smile. I drive a little ole 172 and I was treated this well. I even get the same great service at 3am when I have those unexpected service calls in Memphis. All of you driving the bigger craft would serve yourself and your passengers well by stopping here.
 
From Vance Smiley on 20-Feb-2010

 
  Stopped in unexpectedly and found Wilson Air to be nearly perfect. Line guys are extremely well trained, helpful and polite regardless of what you purchase or fly. All staff was attentive and made us feel right at home during our brief visit. Conservatively, this FBO is a 10 out of 10! (C90B)
 
From Matt Coleman on 26-Jan-2010

 
  They have a great reputation...and for good reason. It's one thing for a G5 to get great service...it's another thing when a starving freight dog in a beat up MU-2 is treated the same way. Never had a single problem and excellent, prompt service. Great people, always ready with a smile, even at 3am in a blizzard while fueling a notoriously irritating plane to fuel. What an FBO should be.
 
From Mark Braden on 15-Aug-2009

 
  The operation at Wilson Air Center at KMEM is second to none. Each time we arrive, we are professionally parked and greeted with friendly, helpful staff. Our passenger's transportation was brought planeside within moments of deplaning under their cool canopy. We were asked if we "needing anything else" countless times. Wasn't our first time there and this won't be our last. Even at 2:00am we've received this 1st class service! Nice work!
 
From Kent Magnuson on 26-May-2009

 
  Stopped here today in our Turbo Commander N900NE and had a great quick-turn and discounted fuel price. We go here about once a month and always get best services and a very friendly and helpful staff. Surely is a favorite place to stop and the passengers love the covered aircraft parking at the front door.
 
From CJ LaCour on 08-Apr-2009

 
  Even though there's more MD-11s here than anywhere in the known universe, I was treated royally in my 172 by all involved, controllers, etc. The line guys here at Wilson were top notch. Whatever you do, don't go to the Holiday Inn Select
 
From Sean Franklin on 04-Mar-2009

 
  "It's a beautiful day at Wilson Air!" is how the phones are answered at Wilson FBO. I have visited almost 200 large and small airports across this country and have dealt with many fine FBO's. Wilson Air, and Tunica Air Group (their maintenance contractor), exemplifies what good customer service is all about. I had the misfortune to blow a tire on landing at KMEM. Although pressed for time by the FedEx departures (KMEM apparently has to pay fines to FedEx if runways are unavailable), my plane was handled as gently as if it was their own. Before we even got back to the Tunica hangar behind Wilson FBO, someone was already en-route across town to pick up a tire and tube. I was given one of the immaculate Camry crew-cars to run my errands while they replaced the tube & tire, and within 4 hours of landing I was back in the air. If you're going to have a mechanical problem, try to do it at Memphis International and put yourself in the good hands of the folks at Wilson Air and Tunica Air Group.
