I'm Forest Finch, Crewchief/Mechanic on UH-60 878. We are out of Lakehurst, NJ.
The reason I'm sending you this e-mail is to express our gratitude for the FANTASTIC support you gave us during our recent stay with you. I have traveled a lot in my career, and have NEVER, and I do mean NEVER, experienced F.B.O. that was good as yours! Your crew was more than helpful! Anything we would even ask for was provided immediately! What a pleasant experience you made it for us! I can't thank you enough for your service. And would 100% recommend that we do it again !! Special shout out to Rick, Dave, Jeff, Chaves, Melissa, and Promise! Just wish I could've voted in the best F.B.O. thingy that is going on. I truly think you guys have something special going on! Keep up the good work, and many thanks again.

To the team at Cutter Aviation,

My wife and I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how thankful we are to your amazing team of people. Everyone we had the pleasure of meeting, from the security team to the line workers, was quick with a smile and a warm greeting - even at 5:00 am! As a professional aviator, it means so much when I encounter a team of people whose passion for those they serve is shown with such warmth and kindness. The more places I fly, the more I realize that it truly is rare.

When my wife and I suffered the vandalism of our vehicle and theft of our property during this year’s Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, your team did not hesitate to help us turn a negative experience into an opportunity for something good. Getting to interact with your team each day was truly one of the bright spots of our trip. Not to mention the fact that your generosity allowed us to enjoy the event, knowing we would not need to worry about any further incidents. If there is anything we can do for your team to show our thanks when we are in Albuquerque again, please do to hesitate to ask.

We cannot thank you enough.

I just wanted to thank you for taking such great care of me when I was there last Thursday night with my Mooney, with an electrical maintenance issue. The way you were "on it" with all the information and help I needed to allow me to figure out what to do was awesome. The guys at Bode were great and found the problem promptly and professionally. It turned out I made the wrong call on the callout because no parts were needed and it turned out to be just a loose ground wire. But, it certainly could have been much worse, so all in all, I could sleep well knowing that everything would be good to go in the morning. I continued my flight to Vegas and the return back to South Carolina without incident.

Anyway, I appreciate you and your team. I’m leaving a review on the AOPA airports website and Facebook. I will also recommend Cutter as a nice stop for anyone I know making the trip West.

Thank you again and please let everyone know I appreciated all they did to help.

To say that Cutter is a step above is not even close to enough praise. I lead a Customer Experience (CX) team at a large software mfg., and will be using my Cutter experience as a great aspirational example. Always above and beyond, always caring about you and your family, and I only fly a prop plane. It makes you WANT to do business with them whenever possible. Reasonable prices are great (and they have those), top-notch customer experience is why I keep coming back. Well done.
