Go sign in and the ladies are pretty nice. They'll waive the ramp fee if you get 20 Gallons. So don't be a dumbass like us and gas-up too much in Needles.
The Hertz counter there is great. The car we reserved was just sitting there inside the gate as we entered the FBO from the ramp. The guy in the van loaded our stuff into it. We just walked in, got our keys, drove to the gate which opened automatically and we were on our way!
The Tower guys are pretty good at assuming you don't know what you're doing under all the Class Bravo. (Dude, I'm from LA, I understand.) They're a little worried and tended to micro-manage us even though we had a GPS that did that quite well lol. It's OK, the Las Vegas approach control guys were equally helpful. Once we were out of the Class B space, they're all like, Radar Services Terminated! OK, Buh-Bye then :-)
Easy, simple at Henderson. I've landed at McCarran twice and they were pretty good at Signature Flight Support. But, after the treatment I got at Henderson, I think it's the hot tip!
