Common Complaints

Proximity to Quarry: There's a mention of a rock quarry 1000 ft from Runway 34, with a note about scheduled "explos ops" requiring advance coordination with the airport. This could be a consideration for pilots.
Limited Facilities for General Public: As a general aviation airport, information on typical commercial passenger amenities, cleanliness, or terminal comfort is non-existent, indicating these are not primary features. The AOPA directory explicitly states "None Reported" for activities and "Be the first to review" in the airport reviews section, further suggesting a lack of public-facing facilities and feedback.
No Information on Security/Customs: There is no information available regarding security wait times or customs/immigration experiences, as these services are not typically provided at general aviation fields like KGZS.

Abernathy Field (KGZS) appears to be a functional and appreciated general aviation airport, particularly by pilots utilizing it for training and local flights. However, prospective commercial travelers should be aware that it does not offer the facilities, services, or traveler-centric reviews associated with commercial passenger airports.
