RWY 24U

Shoestring Aviation Airfield (0P2) sits in Stewartstown, Pennsylvania. Field elevation is 1,000 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. The longest is 1,000 ft of turf on 06U/24U. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the Chart Supplement. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the airport operator gives you something different.

This is a VFR-only field. The published remarks call out extensive ultralight activity on and near the airport. That matters here. Expect a busy pattern and keep your scan sharp. Runway 24U has a displaced threshold of 183 ft. Runway 06U has a published clearance slope ratio of 15 to 1 to a displaced threshold of 410 ft. The remarks also note possible crops near the end of 24U. Runways 06U/24U and 15/33 are marked with orange patio blocks. Displaced thresholds are marked with three white pavers on each side.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF for current service details. The remarks also note major airframe and powerplant repair for light sport aircraft only. For clearance delivery, contact Potomac Approach at 866-429-5882.
