Hector Muni sits in Hector, Minnesota. The field elevation is 1,078 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 12/30 at 2,776 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Hector Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL. Fuel service is available by calling 320-848-2745.

A few published remarks matter for planning. Runway 23 is marked with yellow cones. Runway 05 is also marked with yellow cones. The 12/30 lights are mounted in yellow cones. Runway 05/23 is not plowed during winter months. There are also 8-foot crops in the primary surface of all runways, so expect a field environment and keep an eye out on short final and rollout. For clearance delivery, Minneapolis ARTCC can be reached at 651-463-5588. If you are coming in for the first time, verify current runway condition and field status before departure. That is especially important here because the turf runway is shorter and winter use on 05/23 is limited.
