    A Cessna parked and tied down at the parking area and next to the 24 hour fuel pumps - Harris Ranch Airport (3O8).
    Tony A.

    3O8 also know as the Harris Ranch Airport is located 9 miles from Coalinga, right off the highway 5 freeway. If you've driven to or from the LA area, I have no doubt you've either stopped for a rest or driven past and wondered, "why does it smell like death." The airstrip next to Harris Ranch is 30 feet wide by 2800 feet long. There are no taxiways. No FBO's. No staff or maintenance crews or any other services normally found at uncontrolled airports. Yep, 3O8 is one heck of an "E" Ticket ride. A ride that's definitely not for the faint at heart passenger(s) or an inexperienced pilot whose not quite comfortable or proficient with landings / departures from an uncontrolled, extremely narrow and short runway. Overall, the runway is well maintained and as of December 28, 2014 when I flew in and departed that evening, the runway has a fresh coat of slurry seal and new outer edge PCL. There's also plenty of free parking with new tie downs and its a really short walk from GA parking to the restaurant. The best advice I can recommend for arriving at 3O8 is, do a over-field fly over to check the winds and check for other aircraft in the pattern. It's not uncommon for planes on final to be met head on by departing planes heading right at them since again, there are NO taxiways or hold-shorts to wait turns.

    I love Fresno airport because it's the opposite of SFO and LAX where there are hardly any people…read moreand hardly any security lines! Unfortunately there are also hardly any flights to interesting places Lol but they do have the basics (LA, SF, Vegas, Mexico, etc.) I have family who live near here so I have been flying to/from this airport multiple times a year for decades now! The Einstein Bros Bagels inside the airport is pretty good although this location bakes their bagels instead of boiling them. The airport is always clean and I love love love the gorgeous trees in the entryway! There are a surprisingly large number of food and drink here. The rental car terminal is right next door (walk out the door from baggage claim and the counters for the rental cars are right at baggage claim) it is super convenient! You can idle at the curb to pick people up, they have cell phone waiting, plenty of parking - so easy! A few years ago they built a new covered parking structure which is awesome and very convenient. There's only been a few times I can't find parking there and have to park in the main lot. Overall this airport is the most stress-free easy airport I love it! Fun story: When I was in high school, I flew from Barcelona to Madrid then LAX then Fresno and on my luggage it said MAD and LAX and FAT so I thought it was funny to be 'Mad' that I got 'Lax' with my diet then got 'Fat' Lol

    Great to have such a nice and small airport that Is modern and easy to navigate. Signs are…read moreclearly marked. So easy to find my gate and TSA Precheck. I was dropped off and at my gate in under 15 min on a Thursday at noon. The tsa stafff were friendly and pleasant. I appreciate them keeping us safe.

    I'm getting to know a lot of the municipal airports in California, and am struck by the genuine…read morefriendliness of the people I encounter. No exception here, greeted warmly and assistance for ground transportation promptly arranged. I love the fact that our small company has a plane and pilot available- I may never fly commercial again. No TSA, no wait, no screaming kids, no person next to me hogging the arm rest. Spoiled,appropriate for a princess such as myself

    Two pilots. We flew to Visalia to pick up and deliver an airplane. Having not eaten all day, we…read morestopped at the FBO to get directions for a food stop. We were told that the Holiday Inn was the closest place to eat, but they were closed. There were no options close enough to walk to. We inquired about a crew car. One of the linemen decided that simply telling us they didn't have a crew car wasn't informative enough, so he explained that having a crew car placed the FBO in a position of incurring liability if we had an accident. I didn't mind the lecture nearly as much as I minded the tone. Stuck with the vending machines, I asked if they could break a $20. I was told they could not, which seems shortsighted to me if you are an FBO with travelers coming through and your only food option is the vending machines. The other pilot had a few singles and deposited them into the vending machine. It registered the credit, but did not dispense any items when the button was pushed. The credit disappeared. He tried again with the same results. When he asked for a refund at the desk, he was told they couldn't give him a refund. We left hungry, but didn't miss that there were Del Taco bags of food on the linemen's desk. If these guys worked half as hard at solving problems as they did at dodging them, this review would be completely different.
