  My wife and I flew into PHF in our Twin Comanche on Nov 24 to spend Thanksgiving at Colonial Williamsburg. We usually go into JGG but the weather was bad and we needed the ILS to get in. We cannot say enough good things about the staff and services at Rick Aviation. We were provided shuttle service to and from Colonial Williamsburg, the fuel prices were good, ramp fees reasonable, and the people were very helpful. This is our new destination for future trips to Colonial Williamsburg. Thank you all for making our Thanksgiving trip a great general aviation experience.

  I stopped at Rick Aviation in my DA40 to drop my son in Newport News so that he could easily return to his ship, the USS Enterprise. We were on the ramp about 40 minutes and bought some fuel. It came as quite a surprise that Rick Aviation charged a ramp fee in addition to the fuel. There are better places for small GA aircraft to stop.

  Rick Aviation owned by John Bombaro and his family are great. They treat you like family and provide excellent maintenance and other FBO services. Stop in at their new FBO facility and experience first class service. My plane is based at PHF and only serviced by John and his staff. Jim Kent N773SB

  I was extremely pleased with the service that I received at Rick's. Because of weather, I was forced to divert to Newport News. They helped me with luggage in the rain and went well out of their way with assistance on a rental car. I couldn't have been more pleased.

  Wonderful service. Great FBO. Don't need to stop at a fancy, expensive FBO for service. Rick will take care of ya. I was hungry after my flight so I wanted to grab a bite to eat. No crew car available, but Rick to the rescue. They provided a ride for me in town. That's what I'm talking about. Thanks guys!!!!

  PHF (Rick Aviation) was the friendliest airport that I've landed at in a very long time. When I shut down, the plane was surrounded by at least 3 linemen waiting for me to unload where all I had to do was hand them the luggage and they put it in the rental car (which had been driven beside the plane practically before the plane was shut down). I went inside, signed the rental forms for the car, they brought the car around to the front of the building while I was signing and we drove to our destination Overall, an extremely enjoyable experience!

  Excellent experience with Rick Aviation. I landed around 10pm, with the intent to leave around 2am. The FBO had already contacted airport police of my intentions, so I would be able to depart at that time (PHF is a secure airport with air carrier service). Then, a line guy walked me to the police office, so I could be sure I could get back in at 2am. This saved me $$ on a call-out fee. Also, I didn't need fuel, and there was no landing fee or pressure to purchase. Outstanding FBO, very helpful. I actually wish I would have bought some fuel, to help support FBO's that are this helpful...I will next time.

  Extremely friendly and efficient staff. They lent me a crew car for lunch, and held an umbrella in the pouring rain whilst I dipped my tanks. Many thanks!

  Rick Aviation is the best. There we were, stranded by some jerk trying to sell us a junk airplane. Rick's to the rescue! Drove us to another airport WAY across town for our ride home. Thanks!
 
From Keith Ruskin on 25-May-2008

 
  Rick Aviation is a first-class operation. We were met by a lineman and marshalled to our parking spot without even making a request on the unicom. Everyone smiled and was genuinely glad to have our business. We'll be back!
 
From Michael Saldi on 15-May-2008

 
  Made an overnight stop May 7-8. Chose Rick's based on AirNav comments (other FBO on field didn't have any comments at all, so wasn't willing to risk it.) $7.00 Ramp fee even with a fill-up. Service excellent. They arranged to have Enterprise bring the car over even though we didn't arrange it through them. When we left at noon on the 8yh en route un-forecast low ceilings turned us around and we showed up again at 1:00. Crew car was busy so they had someone drop us at a local restaurant AND sent someone else back to pick-us up. Over and above I think. Lounge banter was excellent while we waited out the weather. 2 working weather PC's. Everything a little worn, but neat and clean. I'll be back.

  Rick's is first class. Lineman quickly helped with bags and fuel - and even coordinated for a rental car within 15 minutes of arrival. Thanks!
 
From Gary Mascelli, N28679 on 26-Sep-2007

 
  Rick Aviation provided very good service and I almost had to fight the guy off to carry at least one of my own bags. We were met by the fuel truck and another line staff member to help us get checked in and our aircraft secured for our two night stay (Friday-Sunday). We squared up our fuel bill and overnight fees and headed south on sunday for Myrtle Beach. Thanks all! We'll be back!
 
From Jeffrey Foltz on 07-Jul-2007

 
  The two FBOs at PHF are side by side, but only saw life at Ricks. Lineman came out to guide us to a parking spot so that's where we went. Fueled immediately and with extra care to avoid spillage. Staff help carry our bags all the way to the car. Three days later the plane was waiting in the "rock star" location, right outside the door. They said they didn't discount the tie-down fee, but when I checked the bill they did take off one night. Good folks and we'll stay here in the future.
 
From David Reinhart on 07-Jun-2007

 
  Why can't the guy who shows us where to park help with the bags? Other than that, very good service. Hertz screwed up and didn't deliver a car to Rick's lot, so they gave us a ride over to the counter and then down to the lot to get the car. Had the airplane fueled and ready when requested.
