In our FBO Spotlight series, we’re highlighting FBOs around the country that have received rave reviews from our readers. This latest Spotlight is brought to you by Gary Peek, who recently flew into St. Charles County Smartt Airport in St. Charles, Missouri, in a Cessna 182. Here’s what he had to say about one of the airport’s FBOs, St. Charles Flying Service:

“I am based at St. Charles County Smartt Field, and if St. Charles Flying Service gives visiting pilots half as much quality service as they do me, they would still be heroes. Everything from full service fuel to aircraft maintenance is outstanding. If they work on your airplane they will come and get it, then bring it back when the work is done. It’s almost as though they don’t want you to do any work other than fly your airplane. And to top it off, they occasionally run specials on maintenance and fuel. I don’t know how they do it.”
