Free FBO Stuff

[Gator1999]

Galvin Flying Service at Boeing Field Wa. (KBFI) gives you free smoked salmon...pretty good too

I don't know if they still give them out but Signature at KMIA was giving out free Key Lime Pies.

Back in the 90's when I was flying freight, some FBO at a small airport in the Carolina's gave you a 750ml bottle of liquor of your choice when you purchased fuel. I wish I could remember which one. Does anyone know of this place?[/quote]

Was it Maxton-Laurenburg?

Signature MIA does still give out free key lime mini-pies.

EGE- Vail Valley Jet Center also gives out cute little toy stuffed eagles. If you've got kids (or a wife) they'll love em!

This is pretty small, but I still use a comb that I got from JetSouth in BHM almost a year ago.

Hey! I lost a comb at JetSouth in BHM about a year ago!

Agreed....I should have asked. I won't feel bad asking for a shirt at EGE, especially after our fuel and de-ice bill.

If you fly freight you can forget the free stuff. I am happy when the popcorn machine is not locked up when they see my plane.

I got a leather A2 jacket at the Stevens Aviation in DAY the other day. Price was 700 gallons of jet.

don't forget you're maple syrup in NH! Concord?

Anyone have any more information about this? I am going to KCON tomorrow and get to hang for a few hours! Any info would be great!

Lift ticket vouchers too!

Is it a discount or a free ticket? Also, should I call in advance or do they have them at the desk? Thanks.

RUT gives out free syrup too.

Bohlke Aviation in STT & STX (St Croix) both give away free Cruzan rum to everyone on board.

I remember a C130 with a full load of army guys in the back, everyone went to the hotel happy!

 

[ableone]

Oh and the Monterey Jet Center (MRY) will give you a bike to take with you to the hotel if you're gonna RON

It's been a long time since I was a corp dude but the last time I was in MRY the owner of the FBO used his Jaguar collection as the crew car pool. I take it that this service is no more.
