AVweb reader Bud Beaty is a frequent visitor to Baytown Airport (KHPY) in Baytown, Texas – and to hear him tell it, there’s no better FBO in America to be our latest “FBO of the Week”:
The manager (Charlie) is a corporate pilot (Citation V), and he knows how pilots and passengers should be treated. His lovely wife Kathy and all his great employees treat their customers like royalty. We don’t ask for anything – they take care of our every need automatically including an overnight crew-truck for the pilot. Charlie has spared no expense transforming HPY … into a showcase FBO, completely gutting and rebuilding a new FBO, building new hangars, expanding/renovating the runway, and implementing (through the FAA) two GPS approaches. All the while, he has kept the fuel prices the lowest in the area and among the lowest in the nation. They have one price (and that is for self-service), yet they always provide full service at this price. Charlie has also expanded the airport operating hours and published his personal cell phone number as the after-hours contact number. It is truly a joy to visit HPY.
