Nice clean airport/runway. Very helpful personnel. My wife and I stopped there and back on a trip from western MA to Savannah GA. Fuel prices are excellent. Also, thanks for the use of the car to go into town.

Dropped off an Angel Flight Patient on July 31st. This is a beautiful new airport that will prove to be valuable to the local community. Fuel prices are great and so was the help provided by Chuck. (Sorry again that I messed up the fuel hose when I rewound it!)

We stopped 4 times at KXSA recently. It was a real pleasure. The building is brand new, clean, and sunny. Chuck, the manager, was gracious and helpful. He told us about the little cemetery right next to the runway (if you make a bad landing, why travel any further than necessary!) The avgas was very inexpensive, and it is a lovely place to rest for a while, if on a long journey, as we were. Many thanks to Chuck and airport.

A great little airport, cheap fuel, I fly here every now and then, pack in a lunch and use the kitchenette and microwave. Very friendly staff assisted self-serve, nice new facility. Lucked into free grilled hot dogs one Saturday, airport manager says he does this on the odd nice weekend.

Terrific new facility, self-serve fuel -- right on the V16 airway between Patuxent and Richmond. I came through for a quick refueling stop and was in and out in a flash, with a few more bucks left in my pocket than would have been with some other places in that region.

I recently visited the brand new Tappahannock - Essex County Airport. The airport and terminal building are beautiful and the staff is very friendly. Great fuel price and T-hangars rent for $250 per month plus $250 security deposit.

Stopped at the new Tappahannock airport to get my Virginia Ambassador "passport" stamp. This is a brand-spanking new facility opened last October (07). The staff was friendly and the assisted self-service fuel was really $3.88/gal.

While on a business trip, the aircraft developed an electrical problem and I made a precautionary landing at Tappahannock. There were maintenance folks around from the town and when I explained the problem all of them said the same thing.. Lets call John McDonald. He came right over and was able to provide assistance above and beyond the call of duty. He was very professional and dedicated to the GA and business community. Thanks all.

VERY friendly staff when I had to divert to W79 due to a thunderstorm that popped up. Nice little airport, new airport is due to be open in August apparently! I'll definitely be back to take a look then! This one has "character" though, with the obstructions around. Nothing difficult!

Our aircraft had a mag problem while en route and diverted to W79. John McDonald and crew got on the problem and replaced the magneto. Excellent response from friendly folks. New date for the new airport is July 2007

This is -still- a great small airport, right next to town. Got immediate response from attendant at the FBO on first call on Unicom. Yeah, there is a water tower on your right landing on 02, but - hey, you’re on the runway centerline, right? Spent the morning at a meeting, had lunch at Lowrey’s, and flew on - no muss, no fuss. (The new airport 3 or 4 miles south of town has been graded; it may be ready by year's end.)

A great small town airport, with friendly, helpful people and cheap gas! This is what single engine GA is all about.
