I visited KSOA on Sep 30, 2022 for my regular Friday lunch destination at the Sutton County Steakhouse. The new self-service fuel pumps on the ramp are easy to access. Pilot's lounge is always clean and the air conditioning provides a cool environment. Shuttle van is always clean and ready to roll.

I fly to KSOA every Friday to dine at the Sutton County Steakhouse for their Friday lunch buffet including fried catfish, steak, and trimmings. The courtesy car van provides in-town transportation. Comfortable, air-conditioned pilot lounge with clean bathrooms. Very little traffic here at KSOA. Great place to stop for a meal or groceries in town at the various dollar stores and Lowes Grocery Market. Motel and golf course adjacent to airstrip. Still no AVGAS available as of 2022-08-05, but Jet-A is active.

Flew in yesterday and found that they were working on the fuel farm. In talking with the crew they say that there will be two new tanks installed. The foreman believes that the fuel system will be in operation in April of this year. He was not sure if one tank will be 100LL and the other tank will be Jet-A.

On Friday December 31, 2021, I flew to KSOA in my C172 with my girlfriend to enjoy lunch at the Sutton County Steakhouse conveniently located just around the corner from the airstrip. The unattended FBO has a nice, air-conditioned building with both male and female (clean) bathrooms. An old shuttle van (courtesy car) is provided on-site, and the key is inside the FBO building on the bulletin board. Sutton County Steakhouse provided a buffet (on Fridays and Sundays) that included tasty fried catfish, tender steaks, and all the fixings. They also have a full menu in addition to the buffet. Fuel was not available at the KSOA FBO today. Luckily, I called ahead to the posted phone number on AirNav to ask about fuel, and the city secretary politely informed me that fuel wasn't available today. HOT TIP...Always call ahead to non-towered airports to confirm fuel is available prior to making the flight. Overall, we'll begin making regular day trips to KSOA to use the courtesy car for lunch.
