Great experience at Cutter Aviation ABQ on Friday August 12th. Radioed ahead to request fuel and a car to grab lunch and pick up our passengers in the area. Jim had the car ready and we were on our way in a few short minutes. Upon our return the correct amount of fuel had been dispensed, cold water bottles were offered along with the AOPA discount on Avgas and we were on our way. Ramp fee waived with the 20 gal minimum purchase. Jim and Cutter made this a very smooth trip and got us out on schedule and home to Spicewood, TX before dark. Thanks! We will be back!

I wanted to write you and tell you thank you. My father and I flew down to Albuquerque yesterday in a red and white Cessna 182. Your staff treated us like we were flying something much larger and more expensive. We didn't need much fuel, but they still treated us very well. A friend of mine said you can always tell the character of an FBO by how they treat the little guys. By that definition, your team showed amazing character. From the line staff literally rolling out the red carpet when we landed to the front desk staff recommending a very good local restaurant, your staff is top notch. Thank you so much for your hospitality, and I will definitely be back.

I just wanted to let all my friends at Cutter Aviation know that I am retiring from professional flying. Appropriately, I finished my last flight, arriving at Cutter in an Eclipse the night of February 2, 2019.

I have been a licensed pilot for 64 years and have flown in the military and as a professional pilot for 59 years, and now it’s time that I spend a little more time with my wife of 59 years. It’s been a “great ride,” because I love flying, and because of all the great people I have known and worked with in aviation.

In particular, I want you and all the employees at Cutter to know how much I appreciate your professionalism and friendship. Please pass on my personal thanks for their making my time in aviation in Albuquerque most enjoyable. As the saying goes, they have made “the worst day of flying better than the best day of real work.”

While I’m retiring from professional flying, I will not be gone. You will still see me around the airport in my Mooney!

Jessi and her team at ABQ are outstanding. Jessi (the GM) took personal care of me when I diverted to ABQ with a small electrical problem. She made sure I was able to get the services I needed and made sure I knew all the costs upfront. They found me a hotel with a discounted rate and were very professional and attentive. The fact that I was in a single-engine piston did not matter. They provided first-rate service! Definitely, recommended!
