My experiences with Cutter Aviation, especially Kevin Fenske, have always been top-notch from start to finish. Communication is very important to me and Kevin's conversations with me have never been anything other than frank & fair, regardless of what issue my aircraft was facing at that particular time. In this day & age where Customer Service sometimes seems to be a lost art, Kevin, Molly & the rest of their team at Cutter APA have earned my gold star. Thanks so much!

Stopped at KDVT due to weather. Because I was tired I stopped at Cutter instead of the self service fuel on the north side of the field, knowing that on departure I could still taxi over for the cheaper fuel. Because the staff was so helpful and actually saved me about twice the difference in total fuel price with their special hotel rates, I was happy to buy fuel from them (their fuel prices are reasonable anyway). If I am in the area there is no question which airport and which FBO I will stop at. These people are first rate.

Had such a nice experience the first time that I came back a week or so later. Rented a car at Cutter (Enterprise I think) and they were fantastic. The linemen drove the car right out to our airplane (Cessna 180), signed the paperwork there and we were on our way in minutes. Great customer service! Upon return we dropped off the keys at the front desk, paid for our $25 worth of 100LL (to avoid the ramp fee), and were on our way. Be advised there's a City of Phoenix landing fee that Cutter cannot waive. I can't recall the exact amount but it was 5 or 10 bucks tops. NOTE - if you're going to fly into PHX VFR you NEED to have the Terminal Chart. The controllers will send you to many of the points referenced on that chart - they're also in your Garmin GPS but you have to have the identifiers from the Terminal Chart to find them (you can pronounce the identifiers). Also pay attention to the transitions over PHX. You'll likely be asked to use one of them direct to a downwind/base.

The staff at Cutter is one of the most courteous and professional I have ever experienced at any airport in the Country. They took a proactive approach to service. They even called and asked if they could put our plane in the hangar for us when storms were approaching. They used a team approach to service and we had as many as four well-trained lineman working with us...All smiling and asking what more they could do to help. I highly recommend going to Cutter when you stop at KDVT!

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!
