RWY 09

MAY Airport (0U8) sits in MAY, Idaho at 5,324 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 4,950 ft of turf. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport is in a high mountain valley surrounded by high terrain. That matters here. Expect density altitude to be a real factor on warm days. Performance planning should be conservative.

Published remarks point to a few things a first-time pilot should know. There is a 2 ft ditch along both edges of the runway and at the thresholds. White rock markers outline the runway edges and thresholds. A 45 ft pole sits about 600 ft from runway 09, 150 ft left of centerline. A 4 ft fence is on the centerline about 125 ft from runway 27. The field also has no winter maintenance. The published recommendation is to land runway 09 and take off runway 27 when wind conditions permit. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go.
