We too had a very good experience at Gorge Winds Aviation. I think it's important to note that we arrived well after their closing time--and we needed to park our Piper Arrow overnight and get to our hotel--long flight from L.A.! The transient ramp was pretty full, so we'd unknowingly parked in the flight school's area. But Marv Woidyla, whom I believe is the FBO manager, was leaving to go home. Not only did he OK our parking where we did, but also in his own car he drove us to our hotel; and as I'd said, this was all after closing time. Now get this: he also offered to pick us up the next morning, and he was there within minutes of our call to his cell phone. And dropped us off right at our airplane. He also made rental car arrangements for one of our passengers who was staying in the Portland area for a few days. Now that's service! We'll sure land at TTD for our next Portland trip, and we'll definitely park at Gorge Winds again...Thanks again, Marv, for your friendly, wonderful service!

Nice FBO with great service. They let us borrow the courtesy car to run into Portland. I will definitely be returning to Gorge Winds Aviation when I go back to KTTD.

Flew in w/ a friend in a TBM-850 on a cool rainy afternoon. Despite the rain, ground crew was there to guide us into a parking spot. They had the plane fueled quickly and at a good price. The crew car was gone, so the owner (?) graciously offered to run us to the nearby Wendy's so we could feed ourselves and be back in the air for our return leg to Scottsdale. If flying in the area w/ my own A/C, I'd definitely make this stop at the top of my list.

Solid FBO. Arrived in our Bellanca and were met by accomodating and friendly folks who asked what we needed and helped tie the airplane down. Tie downs at $2.00/nt are a steal compared to PDX. Will be back if I'm in Troutdale.

I recently flew in Troutdale to take a take break during our flight to Seattle in our Columbia / Cessna 400. When we pulled up to the ramp at "Gorge Winds Aviation", there were no ramp personnel to guide us in so we took the nearest parking spot we could find. We idled the airplane for a good 5 minutes to let the turbo's cool down and we could see employees inside the building yet no one came out to see if we needed any services. Once we shut down I had to walk around the building to find a set chocks. We walked into the FBO to find the employees sitting around who did not even bother to say hello. We were interested in purchasing fuel rather than paying the higher prices of a Seattle / Boeing Field FBO but decided against it due to the serious lack of customer service. Obviously other pilots have had a different experience at this FBO but I do not recommend "Gorge Winds" due to my personal experience. I will pay extra for customer service any day.

Very nice FBO with quick and courteous service. I was fueled within minutes of arriving (Cessna 170). The facilities were also very nice (bathroom, flight planning and lounge area). I would definitely recommend this FBO to others.

Great FBO and Flight school! Service is prompt and courteous, planes are well maintained, and the instructors (the ones I've met so far) are all very knowledgeable. If you're coming to the Portland area, this is definitely the field and FBO of choice! 1
