You guys have been doing a lot of flying lately! We received more “FBO of the Week” nominations over the last seven days than we have in months. Despite some outstanding recommendations, we’re awarding our “FBO of the Week” ribbon to the FBO at Santa Ynez Airport at KIZA in Santa Ynez, California.

Not only do they have a great webcam on their site (where you can check real-time fuel prices and ground conditions at a glance), but they inspired this heartfelt endorsement from AVweb reader Eric Cobb:

This is the way airports used to be, and I believe [Santa Ynez] is the best small airport in the U.S. Made me feel like a kid again.
