From Doug Preston, Sr. on 29-Sep-2008

The first 2 weeks of Sept. we had 4 aircraft from Alabama make a tour out west. We stopped at MAC on the way out and back. We covered 6215SM and MAC was the best fuel price of the trip. They loaned us the van for breakfast and treated us like "BIG IRON". Great service and friendly folks. They are Class "A".
 

From David McNeill on 09-Aug-2008

Only negative is that their fuel is still coded as "other" on the credit card purchase and as such does not get the 3% discount by the credit card company. If an FBO does not code your purchase as "vehicle expense" when you buy fuel you will not get the discount.

Stopped in on flight from St. Louis to San Antonio in our Bonanza. Good fuel price. Very friendly service! Nice lounge and pilot room. I definitely recommend.
 

From Sam Matta on 31-Jul-2008

Stopped on way to OSH. Excellent service, decent fuel prices and great folks. Will use next time headed that way!
 

From Richard Bach on 13-Jul-2008

Great service! Jerry and Roger and Connie went out of their way to help when an oil gage problem forced an overnight stay. Part was ordered overnight and Dale Lehmann at Mountain Airframe Services repaired the problem as top priority and I was on my way next morning. MJC Is an outstanding operation all the way around.
 

From Dave Morris on 06-Jun-2008

Stopped here in an old Mooney on the way to Dallas when fighting a headwind and I needed a quick turn. The most reasonable fuel prices around, clean modern facilities, snack machine, very friendly people. Got a follow-up letter in the mail thanking me for stopping.
 

From Nichole Stoneburgh on 05-Jun-2008

As an employee of an FBO in MI (Pontiac Air Center) I can honestly say the service here was above & beyond what is expected. It was Memorial Day weekend & every thing was closed. Neil Moran helped me out throughout the day! At the end of the day I couldn't fly home myself due to engine problems. And every hotel was booked and the car rental places where closed. No taxi to be found. Neil called his own mom to give me a 2.5 hour ride to Little Rock airport! The service was amazing! Fuel prices where great.
 

From Grant Settle on 22-Mar-2008

Second time to Mena, both times good experiences. Great facilities and a great fuel stop.
 

From Paul Dettinger on 25-Sep-2007

Great service and facility. Tied down at MAC on Saturday 9/4. Our rent car company picked us up at MAC (before noon on Sat) and we were able to drop the car back at MAC on Mon 9/6 before departing. As mentioned in other comments it's difficult to get Center to open an IFR flight plan departing Mena VFR.
 

From Terry Orner on 07-Sep-2007

Stopped for fuel and received great service from MJC. The line and office personnel were very courteous and helpful. However, we always have an issue going into KMEZ during IMC. Center loses radios below 4300' and is reluctant to let you go lower, unless you're on the ILS approach. Also, if taking off IFR, there's no good way to get your clearance unless you take off VFR and climb to 4300' to contact center for your clearance.
 

From Frank Setzler on 27-Aug-2007

I visited MAC during a 3500-mile trip this last summer. All of the staff was very friendly and quite helpful. Dan Page made long distance phone calls to other airports along my route to make sure that we would have a taxi or an airport car available after hours. That is going above and beyond. The name JET Center always makes me nerves when I taxi up in a 40 year old Piper. They treated me very fair and they had good prices.
 

From Paul Loghry on 31-Jul-2007

Stopped a MAC Jet Center to and from Oshkosh and found good fuel prices (same as shown on AirNav), friendly folks, and a nearly new looking facility. On the return trip Dan and his crew loaned me tools, then sent me to Priority Aviation on the field where they resolved the issue at no charge! What a great stop! Thanks guys!
 

From Carroll Allison on 21-Jun-2007

Nice airport, nice facilities, great service and lowest fuel prices. Highly recommend this FBO.
 

From Red Barrister Aviation on 17-Jun-2007

I can't say enough good things about MAC Jet Center. Jerry Smith and his team is top notch. Neil was a big help. Very competitive fuel prices and super friendly. They went out of their way to make my unintentionally long visit in Mena a very pleasant one. I'll definitely be back.
 

From David Caskey on 05-Apr-2007

In from the Bahamas, I received outstanding service on the line and in the office. My hotel was booked and a car was provided along with hangar space. I needed some minor repairs and they were taken care of efficiently. Will be back.
 

From Mark Shackelford on 02-Apr-2007

Mac Jet Center has provided me with excellent service over the past two months. I've flown in and out several times, with excellent service on each occasion. They have been very generous with the use of their crew cars for which I am very appreciative. Dan and Eric, the line crew, are as professional as they come. These guys really are out to please their customers.
 

From Jim Risher on 12-Mar-2007

Flew into Mena on the night of February 14th in a Conquest II. Called ahead and the line guy stayed late (no charge) to fuel the plane. He had the truck parked and fuel pumping before I even got out of the plane. EXCELLENT SERVICE!! One of the best x country fuel stops I have found. I will be back. If the weather is IFR, be sure to call Jonesboro FSS from the FBO (or cell) to pick up your IFR, as there is no radio communication with center or radio until airborne.
 

From Gregory D Raynbird on 01-Mar-2007

Randomly picked Mena as a CC destination to build time and a good choice it was. Impeccable service, great fuel prices and beautiful views all around. With new facilities going up and a more than adequate temporary facility now, this is truly a diamond in the rough. Thanks...We'll be back!
 

From Rondle Parnell on 02-Feb-2007

Jerry Smith, the General Manager, and Daniel Page, the Fuel Manager at MAC Jet Center, went out of their way to make sure our medical flight got out on time. They are not only courteous but customer oriented assisting in anyway they can to make your visit to Mena pleasant and successful. The FBO is nice and the fuel prices very competitive. We will be back!
 

From Mike Hays on 19-Dec-2006

Stopped in Dec. 13 for a paint bid and was welcomed at MAC Jet Center with the "red carpet" treatment for my little RV. Laurie went out of her way to offer the best in hospitality. Fuel prices were very competitive. They are in temporary but very adequate quarters until their new facility is built. Not well marked with signs but look for the Shell sign on the east side of Rwy 17-35 at the south end.
 

From Dustin Bourn on 18-Dec-2006

Arrived in a King Air to pick up another aircraft out of the paint shop. Excellent service and the FBO on the other side should come over and take notes on how to treat people and be professional. Highly recommended give them an A+++
 

From Joe Daniel on 06-Dec-2006

Picked up two aircraft from paint shop on 12-4-06, excellent service by Dan, we were in a hurry to leave, so he was prompt and courteous. Highly recommend Mac Jet Center
 

From Taylor Scott on 28-Nov-2006

We stopped at MAC Jet Center in Mena today on a 135 trip. We were not able to take on any of the cheap gas because of the 135 IMC climb gradients and our pax load, but we were still treated with the utmost respect and professional courtesy. Real nice facility, cheap gas, two Internet/WX computers, pilot's lounge, vending, and a courtesy car. We normally stop across the field but saw the Shell aviation sign and figured we would try it since the other place is pretty run down and you may or may not get friendly service. Our pax took the courtesy van into town for business and we were offered an employees car to drive. I will definitely be back. Thanks MAC Jet Center!
 

From Lewis Drake on 14-Nov-2006

Great service from friendly, down-home, folks. Great prices on jet fuel and price advertised includes tax! Will stop here any chance I get.
 

From Chris Delker on 07-Nov-2006

Wonderful service, friendly staff, and low fuel prices at a beautiful airport. If you need fuel or services in the Mena area, this is the place!
 

From Daniel Barbee on 02-Nov-2006

Stopped in Mena for lunch after sightseeing in the area. Great service, friendly & helpful people, very nice clean facility. A little hard to find since they have no sign out front, just call them on the UNICOM (CTAF) and they'll direct you in. 100LL price was as advertised. Thanks to General Manager Jerry Smith and his staff for a pleasant FBO experience!!
 

From John Frullo on 28-Oct-2006

Stopped at the MAC center and found it to be a great place. Dan, the manager, was very friendly and helpful. The local phone service for the area was out and he lent me his cell phone when mine would not pick up a signal. Brand new facility, great people--I will stop there again.
 

From Bob Siegfried on 21-Oct-2006

I stopped at MAC Jet Center due to the low advertised fuel price. The service was great and the amenities all that could be desired. Very fast and friendly full service at Self Serve style prices. I highly recommend the stop.
