Brought a customer in here for a couple hour-wait while he went to a benefit. Was given the keys to a Lexus as the crew car, directions to a very nice restaurant and granted after-hours access. All with a smile. Decent fuel price, bought a bunch of gas and no additional fees. Great service.

In February this year I had to leave my Saratoga due to icing conditions. Don put my plane in a hangar paid a monthly fee until I came back to get it in March. Becky allowed us to use the airport car to get breakfast when we came back to pick up the airplane, they treated us great. We will definitely be back. Thank you for the great hospitality.

Recently had a trip though KPVG in the company Citation. Great service here, fuel, loaner car, and a very nice, practically new terminal building. The crew here really makes an effort to accommodate, we were very pleased with the friendly and professional service. Look for a new and longer east west runway to open within a year.

Another great stop. I selected this airport based on reviews I read here. And it was all good. As I taxied up and parked, my pre-arranged (Enterprise) car was brought out to me. Bought fuel the next day and the night's parking was waived. Transient parking is by the self serve pump. Many spaces are labeled and reserved for the many businesses on the property. Call on CTAF if you are not sure, and they will guide you in to the right spot, as the staff monitors the freq. The main terminal building is lovely, inside and out. A shame I could not stay longer. Check the drive times from other airports. It was counter intuitive, but this airport was the better drive of the two GA airports I was considering, despite appearing further from my Virginia Beach destination.

Flew in for the Oceana airshow, first time at this airport. Great service, very friendly, excellent / clean facilities and FBO. Lineman hauled our bags and gave us a ride in a golf cart, much appreciated! Will def be back each year and make this my normal stop! Tie down was $10/night (1 night waived for fuel).

Great experience! Landed later than anticipated and rental car drop off didn't happen as planned. Owner had a trusted ride for me in minutes to get me to my hotel. Great facility and great fuel price too! Thanks Tommy!

Recently visited family in Virginia Beach and chose Hampton Roads Exec as my destination ... Turned out to be an excellent choice. Service, facility and people were just superb! I would encourage those who have choices, to try Hampton Roads ... I guarantee you'll have a great experience!

My wife and I landed just ahead of a thunderstorm in a recently finished homebuilt. It turned out to have some leaks in the cabin. This FBO got me into a hangar at a VERY reasonable rate for the weekend. The help was greatly appreciated. I will be a return customer. The full service fuel price was also a treat. Thanks to Don and the rest of the team.

What a great weekend stop. Don was awesome. Rental car brought right out to the plane. Topped off when needed. Restaurant was open but we didn't get to eat there. New CTAF is 122.975!! Just a 10 minute drive into Portsmouth to see the Avett Brothers. New terminal is as good as it gets.

These folks go "above and beyond" to make sure you have what you need when you arrive. Tommy Benn directed us to a good tiedown spot, came over with the golf cart then went back and drove our rental car out, and helped us transfer luggage from the plane to the car. The plane was topped off as requested when we returned. This is an easy place to fly in to -- just be aware of the location of tall towers to the north of the field. Also be aware of simultaneous fixed-wing left traffic and helicopter right traffic, which took us by surprise on our approach. Overall, a really pleasant experience -- highly recommended.

Flew down in July for a 2 month stay and was given a very reasonable rate on a tiedown. You can't get better service from a line crew anywhere on the east coast. I will be returning in the future on business and this will be my airport of choice. I like it when my Cherokee gets the same respect from an FBO as the corporate aircraft. Keep up the good work.

Returned to PVG since 12/13/2010. New terminal looks great. Tommy as usual took care of everything. Self Service 100LL is convenient and works! New runway is under construction so watch out for construction traffic. Also watch out for intersection of 28/10 and 20/2 landing on 28 has a big hump at intersection. Have planned at least 5 more monthly trips.

I called ahead for time of operation and asked if they had self-serve fuel. Told Tommy that I would be there shortly after close and that self serve would be fine. We arrived 10 minutes past close and Tommy was waiting to assist. Great facility, great customer service and very competitive fuel prices.

I've based my airplane at this airport for 10 years, and have nothing but great things to say about the facility and its people. One of the most pleasant activities I've engaged in over the years has been enjoying lunch at the Blue Skies Grille with friends and family as I watch aircraft taking off and landing in the background. I write to report that, effective immediately, the restaurant is now open on Sunday's! They also have a new outdoor patio and seating area. Come on in and check it out - you'll love the food and the atmosphere!

I stopped in today to visit family in a rented C172. After shutting down, I was given help pushing the airplane into a tiedown spot. The self-service fuel pumps are great, and the tiedown for the afternoon was free. The terminal building is new and clean. Computers in the pilot's lounge had big monitors with a printer available. My brother and two-year-old godson, both of whom had never been to a GA airport before, were waiting for me when I landed. They were made to feel welcome and were impressed with the facilities. My nephew had a blast sitting in the airplane and taxiing to the fuel pumps (I was forbidden to take him for a flight). Thanks for a memorable experience. I will be back. I did find the taxiways a bit confusing.

As others have noted--unbeatable/outstanding service from arrival until departure the next morning! After landing, Tommy marshalled me over to the self-serve fuel pump with the fueling nozzle in hand...Ready to go. He also generously accommodated me with my request for hangar for my Mooney overnight, and was there at the T-hangar to personally assist me for our departure the next morning. These folks at VA Aviation Associates clearly know what we really want--top-notch service, low fuel prices, hangar options--and exceeded my lofty expectations. They will always be my stop when I travel to the Norfolk area. Great job Tommy, Dan and Don!

Thanks to Dan and Tommy for a great stay this past weekend! They went out of their way to accommodate my request for overnight hangar and Tommy was beyond gracious when I arrived at the airport with a big group of folks who wanted to see us off. Great new facility, great fuel prices, great rental car rate through Enterprise, and great people. Couldn't ask for more.

Trip to PVG for Christmas. Got caught by 12 inches of snow and ice. Tommy was great -- checked regularly on airplane, kept me informed of airport status, helped greatly in clearing frost and preparing for departure, etc. Weather cost us a day, but overall the experience was fine and service was friendly, given the circumstances. Have visited PVG several times. Will be even better with the new terminal to be opened soon.

Had a trip to Norfolk and chose PVG. Airport is close to city and convenient. The folks at VA Aviation Assoc are very helpful and Tommy is the best. Fuel price is VERY low at the SS. New terminal is nearing completion and should improve the facilities substantially. The current 10-28 runway is somewhat uneven and narrow but Timmy assured me that construction on the new 5000 + foot runway is to begin soon. Also caution on taxing from fuel farm to end of 28 taxiway has no centerline and it too narrow for large aircraft. Tommy recommends back taxi on 10-28 and he will clear traffic for you. Lastly, for IFR traffic it is highly recommended that you get your clearance on the ground since ATC may not have time to give it to you in the air. Read your approach charts carefully several high towers are to the NW and East of airport. Will come back.

Really friendly folks with good service. And the fuel price is great, too! Good rental car arrangements, and it's an easy drive to downtown Norfolk. Current FBO terminal is fine, with runway-view restaurant, but they are building a new, larger terminal.

Flew in to Virginia Beach with my family in our Cherokee for a long weekend. Parking was dirt cheap, as was the fuel, and the service was excellent. Taxiways are not marked clearly at least for me. Taxiway for 28 is between the pumps and the hangars. I will absolutely come back in a heartbeat when in the area.

We flew down from Montreal for a vacation at Virginia Beach. Tommy Benn had reserved a T-Hangar for our four night stay for a low $15 per night. The rental car from Enterprise was delivered to our hangar and the fuel bill was super competitive. Add to this a positive and helping attitude and you have the best deal in town. We will be back! Many thanks Tom!

Went to visit my daughter in Norfolk. Flew into PVG for a couple of days. Spoke with Peggy before my trip and she set me up with a hangar for a couple days. People there are very helpful and professional. As I landed the line guy was waiting for me in his golf cart and I followed him to the hangar. After the plane was in the hangar he placed luggage on cart and took my wife and I back to the FBO. We even had lunch at the restaurant waiting for my daughter to pick us up. Best FBO in the area for GA!!!! This is the place I will be landing for now on!!!

The airport manager, Tommy Benn, assisted me with the self service fuel (very good price) and returning my rental car and then waived my tie-down fees asking me to tell my friends about their service. EXCELLENT experience.

Great Stop, very friendly FBO. New terminal being built, which should be excellent when done. Parking was hard but if you know it's next to the road by Chesapeake Aviation, Yellow Dot spots, it's easy. Tie downs were there and affordable fuel in the AM. Line guy even helped with luggage! Co Pilot liked the clean bathrooms.

I had a conference to attend on the oceanfront VA Beach and after looking over my options, I chose PVG. While it is about 25 miles from the oceanfront, I was looking for a safe and convenient airport where I could leave the airplane for 3 nights. Upon my arrival, I asked if Tommy and staff could call a cab for me. Somehow, while I was still unloading the airplane, the cab appeared...Talk about curbside service. Helen from Portside Taxi is a regular at PVG and I expect this accounts for her familiarity with the airport and the ability to drive right out onto the field. Since I had a large amount of luggage and it was about 90 degrees...This was a real treat. I returned 3 days later and Tommy fueled me and sent me on my way, comping my 3-night stay. The friendly staff went above and beyond what one would expect. Their exceptional service will certainly be remembered the next time I fly to the Tidewater area.

As others have already stated, Hampton Roads Executive is a well run, friendly and altogether nice airport to visit. Daniel and Peggy set us up with a rental car through Avis and a hangar for our bird. The helpfulness of each staff member we came into contact with was exceptional. Fuel was priced right, the hangar was very reasonable and the location great. We will most certainly use PVG when we return to Norfolk next. Good Job PVG.

Used PVG to get to Norfolk; much easier and significantly cheaper than ORF across the board: fuel, fees, ground transportation. Peggy (757 465-0260) provided guidance and fees: No fee for the first night; $5 each night thereafter, waived if fuel is purchased from the truck. NO OTHER FEES! Coordinated with Brady and Katie at Enterprise (757 539-7900) who had the car waiting when my family and I arrived - hassle-free processing both picking up and dropping off after hours. Overall excellent experience and will work this the same way should I travel to the Tidewater area again.!
