Embark on your aviation journey with Rick Aviation — where dreams take flight!
Service was good & people were friendly, but $150 ramp fee (not waived with my 100 gal fuel purchase)& $150 per night for parking are high for a turbo prop
I would like to HIGHLY recommend Rick Aviation! We had a rent car waiting for us with a 3 minute phone call to Ms. Penny. On our second business trip to Newport News we encountered the same warm treatment.....My staff said they felt like royalty! Thank you Penny!
I enrolled my son several months ago at Rick. He told me all about his experience there. The cultural and social limitations Rick has placed on themselves will keep them from being a universal 5 star operation that welcomes all people. Clearly the staff at Rick have a lot of work to do in this area.
