Default Peerless Line Service at AXS

It's been a long time since I was on the receiving end of line service -
good, bad or indifferent. But I know when when I get it good - and I got
it today. With a C150! I delivered a plane to a new home base - and
was neatly directed onto a tie down, where it was then tied off near the
terminal lounge.

When the line person asked how long the plane would be there,(1 month
plus) she suggested I talk to the line boss about a better location.
He decided I could go in a sheltered site, and drove me over to look
at it, while the mule pulled my aircraft over, then he shuttled me and
my bags to my car.

The prices were so stunningly different than fuel and tie-down at
McKinney where I departed, [no surprise in that!] that I was undoubtedly
biassed in favor on that basis alone, but there's an undefinable aura to
superb line service, hard to put your finger on it.
Dan and his team were all over it, today. Bravo!
