Default Thrown out of an FBO...

You know, Jay, you could do us all a favor and let us know what FBO
this is. While I might buy gas from them if their price was in the
ball park and they were on the way, I certainly wouldn't let them work
on a plane I was flying.


There are 111 public airports* in Iowa. I guess we can assume that it isn't
the Iowa City airport. That leaves 109 good (public) airports and 1
'possibly' bad airport. That gives you less than a 1% chance of picking that
'bad' airport/FBO in Iowa. Those chances are good. Even if I did hit that
'bad' Iowa airport/FBO, chances are that my experience there may be
different than what Jay experienced. What happened to Jay there may not
happen to most other people.
