Best of all they have an A-6E Intruder as the static display. I flew in for a Saturday Breakfast with the EAA chapter. Ended up taking a fellow EAA member for a quick flight and talked for a while, got fuel and took pics for the Intruder. Runways are smooth and the taxiways are smooth as well.

I was just here to see the T-33 parked out front, but as a (lapsed) pilot I was impressed by the…read morefacilities as well. I expected a quiet, small-town airport, but it was bustling. A dozen or more vehicles parked around, people attending to assorted tasks, several planes taking off and landing. And not just trainers beating up the circuit- bigger, more complex GA planes too. The facilities are well-maintained, and in addition to an office and rows of T-hangars there are a couple of bigger buildings. It's a ways out of town, so you'd need a ride if you were actually visiting Sidney, but as busy as it is they might even have a courtesy car. I will keep this in mind the next time I am bopping around in the air.

Linda the manager was so kind to us by lending us her car foe the day and made great coffee! We will be back!

Moved here for the flying when my flying club was closed at WPAFB…read more Great service and friendly staff. The airport can get busy on occasion with training of Flight Surgeons from WPAFB but even with that, they are really good in ground ops. Glad the Club picked this airport even if it can get a little sporty in a crosswind landing.

Despite the fact that this is one of the quickest airports I have experienced in getting in and out…read moreof it, it lacks many of the amenities one is used to at most big city and metro airports I've experienced. A major advantage here is its proximity to the city itself. Yet, I don't deem it a bad one. In my occasions to regularly travel yet not a professional airport reviewer by any means, and not a business traveler - but a mainly fun and demands trekker, I have developed as succinct a process for measuring the worthiness of each airport visited. My criteria are: 1) ease of access to and from public or private ground transportation: 4.0; 2) convenient parking when having to leave vehicle or dropping off: 4.0; 3) access and convenience of retrieving and dropping off rental vehicles: 3.5; 4) atmosphere, ambience, public facilities, seating areas and access to communications, charging and Wi-Fi: 3.5; 5) overall human customer service - including but not limited to ticket counter, TSA, Hospitality, Retail, Support Services, Restaurant and Baggage Handler knowledge, communication, attitude and demeanor: 3.0; 6) ease of flight information access throughout facility via signage, boards, screens or clear understandable PA system announcements: 3.5; 7) distance, maneuverability, access and convenience of trekking from gate to gate and/or concourse to concourse for connecting flights: 4.0; 8) quantity, value, convenience, quality and comfort of eateries and/or retailers: 3.0; and last, but not least 9) baggage handling, claims and retrieval location, process and lost and found assistance: 4.5. Taking all the aforementioned categories, I've devised a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being the worst and 5 being the best an airport can be! This airport rates a: 4.1. Most positive point(s) at this airport are: few and far between, but considering its construction phase, easy to maneuver, clean yet maize like. The most negative points here are: again, the lack of amenities plus. One caveat, while visiting this airport there was a considerable amount of construction in progress, which I am sure affected the overall outcome of my review. I therefore retain a prerogative to reevaluate Ft. Wayne International at a later date.

Yes, I understand we are at an airport and it has become acceptable to overcharge for things. But, come on, you have to gouge people? Shame on Hop River for doing this !!! Maybe a dollar or even two over charging but five or six dollar over charge, just isn't right !!!! Bring your own snacks!!!

I fly in here at least once a month for food. The airport is very easy to get to and find. Great runways and taxiways, this place is a perfect place to fly to for enjoyment and food. If you are near by driving, drive in and eat at the cafe or come by the museum. Wonderful little place.

As fun as flying is, it's still always nice to fly someplace with a cool destination. Food, plus a museum (again, another listing) make this a great little place. As a general aviation airport, it is well-maintained and easy to fly in and out of. Today we went for another reason. The 75th anniversary of the Doolittle raid is coming up. If you don't know what that is, you should have been paying attention in history class. Go Google it, and if you have longer watch the classic war movie "Thirty Second Over Tokyo." Anyway, there aren't many participants left, so this might be the last gathering they have. They've been doing it for a few years, and each time I visit it is fun. The B-25s gather here over the few days before the anniversary, then fly down to Wright-Patt for a ceremony. The gathering at Grimes isn't quite an airshow, though you will see some flyovers. The planes taxi in and out, and you can inspect them when there's no activity. If you or anyone you know are a plane buff this will make their day, or month, or year. You can buy rides, talk to reenactors and veterans, see the "Flying Christmas Tree" light-testing plane, and walk down to the museum. Sweetie graciously came along and wasn't too bored; Baby K liked it- I was so proud. The rest of the year it is a great small airport. Fly in here if you can, or drive in for some pie and plane-watching.
