Hammond Air Center - Hammond, LA - (KHDC)
Six star facility, service, and experimental friendly!
Pirep - Return flight from SnF 2014 to Houston - weather dictated a 2-day layover in Hammond, LA. I purchased fuel from the self-serve pump (different FBO) and there inquired about hangar, lodging, and transportation. The line person made a call to Hammond Air Center which is located just around the corner from the self-serve pump, and they said "come on over". I was greeted by Ryder who helped me tie-down in a rock-star spot and he then escorted me inside to meet Jessica. Jessica had a very nice crew car brought to the front door, made my hotel reservation, and presented me with two cold beers brought up by Ryder for when I got settled at the hotel. Hammond Air Center also has rental cars available on location for those with long-term needs. I should also add that the town of Hammond is a great destination with a historical district, quaint shops, fine dining, and a fabulous ambiance.
Hammond Louisiana and Hammond Air Center are a great combination and deserve your favorable consideration. Oh, and did I mention they're EXPERIMENTAL FRIENDLY.
