I visited on Saturday, October 18, 2014 after flying in from Chicago. Was met on the ramp, and they brought my rental car out right away. The line person with the enchanting million dollar smile courteously asked me if she could put fuel in my plane right away, and I of course agreed. She very nicely complimented what I was wearing (a suit for a memorial service). The plane was ready to go when I came back in the late afternoon, and the folks were very helpful. I hope I get a chance to visit again (and see that million dollar smile again!).

So I flew into Cutter in my more-than-humble 1947 Ercoupe and parked next to a Lear. Yikes! But you know what? The staff treated me like a king! They literally brought out the red carpet (but then didn't know where to put it because Ercoupes don't have obvious doors if you've never seen one before). It was a hot day, and my teenage son appreciated being handed a bottle of cold water right off the bat. The linemen--and linewoman--were helpful and friendly, as was the front desk staff both in the evening and the following morning. It didn't faze anyone that I only needed a few gallons of gas, and they found hangar space for me for the night, including locating a cord for my pre-heater. The next morning my plane was on the line and ready for me right at the requested time. The facilities are very good, with every thing you could want, with fast Internet and comfy chairs; but I found it was the Cutter people who really made the difference. They were extraordinary.

My experience at Cutter ABQ last week was great. The day before arriving I clicked on the Cutter website link on AirNav and was offered a web chat with a service advisor. They quickly arranged everything for our stay, including rental car and a nice discount at the Hotel Andaluz (great boutique hotel downtown!). When we arrived late on Wednesday, they brought the car right up to the Cirrus and gave us directions to the hotel. The next day, the airplane was already filled up as requested and we got an AOPA avgas discount. Hat's off to the service team of Chantel, Kerrie, and Elizabeth and the line crew at Cutter ABQ!
