Elizabeth Fld (0B8) sits on Fishers Island in New York. Field elevation is 7.2 ft MSL. The airport has 2 asphalt runways. The longest is 2,345 ft on runway 12/30. There is no control tower. The field is attended May through October. Hours are Monday through Saturday from 0800 to 1630. Sunday hours are 1000 to 1630. It is unattended November through April.
No ILS approaches are published here. Traffic pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Providence Approach handles the published approach and departure frequencies. For clearance delivery, contact Providence Approach. When Providence Approach is closed, contact Boston ARTCC.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan on coordinating directly with the airport manager before arrival if you need local handling. Published remarks also call out several runway-adjacent obstructions. Runway 07 has dunes near the runway. Runway 25 has brush near the threshold. Runway 12 has a road and sign posts close to the runway. Runway 30 has a rock seawall off the left side. The field is low and coastal, so expect a short-field environment with limited margin. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or operational restrictions before you go.
