Downeast Air is a fixed base operator (FBO) for private aircraft. An FBO sells fuel, provides hangar space, parking, and other services to assit private aircraft. Apparently "JM/Dibka channel" thinks this is an airline. I suggest Google revoke his/her "local guide" status for abuse. JM/Dibka clearly never did business with the Downeast Air FBO business which is attached to the review. I've flown my own aircraft into Rockland and used Downeast Air for services for many years. They always take good care of me, they are polite, and do anything they can to help. Fuel price is competitive.
