Franklin-Hart Airport sits in Canon, Georgia. Field elevation is 889.9 ft MSL. It has one runway, 08/26, at 5,000 ft asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light-piston pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern near 1,890 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Runway headings are 72° and 252° magnetic. The airport is small and straightforward, so the main job is staying sharp on CTAF and checking the runway lighting plan before a late arrival.
Published remarks say the lights are on from dusk to 0000. After 0000, the PAPI on 08 and 26 plus the medium intensity runway lights on 08 and 26 can be activated by CTAF. Self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. Franklin-Hart Airport also carries JET A. The on-field FBO is Franklin-Hart Airport. For clearance delivery, contact Atlanta ARTCC. First-time visitors should verify any current airport notes in the FAA Chart Supplement before departure, especially if planning a night arrival.
