  We are very sorry to learn our good friend and fellow pilot, Gordon Davis, Owner of Mountain Hawk Aviation at the Tehachapi Airport, died in an airplane accident in Wyoming this past Sunday. Gordon spent his life involved in aviation and will be greatly missed by all of us in the Tehachapi aviation community.

  Great News!! The 100LL fuel pump has been repaired and is now back online. I bought fuel last night and everything worked great. Sorry for any problems this outage may have caused but we welcome you back to our City's consistently low fuel prices. Remember, downtown is only 3 blocks away. Feel free to park in front of hangar 51west for an easy walk down Green St..

  Please note that as of this date, the 100LL pump is still out of service. According to the Airport Manager, things are in process but it will be at least another 2 weeks before getting the system back up and running. If stopping for fuel, call on 123.00 to verify if things are back to normal.

  Note: notified that 100LL fuel pump is out of service 12/28/12 and date of return to service unknown. Advise you call KTSP at 661-822-2200 for further information on when the pump will be back in service before landing there.

  This airport remains my number one stop, not only for reasonable fuel prices and clean facilities but also a short walk to a couple of very good restaurants in a nice little town... The short walk is perfect to let that food settle a bit before taking flight again. Thank you guys at Tehachapi!

  Tehachapi is a gem in the mountains. Fuel is cheap, and it's a quiet, nice town. Of course, you need to consider density altitude but other than that it is a great place to stop for food or fuel. If you feel like a great BBQ place, then forget about the Apple Shed and go across the street to Red House BBQ (it's almost worth the flight up just to eat here). It has a great atmosphere, service, and you can even eat in a teepee! It's about a quarter mile walk south from the airport. I will certainly visit this airport again.

  Pilots, Shhh, please. This is still our little secret. Just 80 - 90 nm from the LA Basin. The fuel this week is $5.05! Then a one minute walk north leads you to an awesome pilots' lounge. This place is First Class, spotless clean, and for free! Bathroom includes a shower. Kitchen is fully stocked. The fridge and freezer have what you want and on the honor system! I just keep coming back, over and over.

  Great fuel stop! Tom, the manager, was not present, but returned my call, and was most friendly and helpful with good local info. We will definitely stop here again when our travels take us along this way.

  TSP has a webcam now to help aid pilots in their fly-in decision.

  Would have given them an "excellent" if someone from airport administration had posted the new auto access ramp code change here at AirNav. No longer "4000." To enter the ramp OR to EXIT, you now enter "2135" on the keypad. Thanks to TWO nice ladies who clued us in on two different below freezing days with 20+ MPH winds. It would have been a long walk to the outside parking lot from the transient aircraft ramp carrying baggage without that access code. Thanks to the friendly residents.
