WACO FLD sits in Troy, Ohio at 817 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 2,385 ft of turf. The field is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway headings are magnetic at 170° and 350°. The airport sits under 5° magnetic variation.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan for self-sufficiency on arrival. Tiedown anchors and ropes are not provided. The published remarks also note UAS activity on the field. Pilots should listen on CTAF and overfly as needed to stay clear of drone operations. Clearance delivery can be coordinated with Columbus Approach at 614-338-8537.

Runway 18 has white barrel markings at the threshold and departure threshold. The departure end also has a published obstacle issue. A building and a power line or pole sit off the departure path, so performance and climb planning matter here. Wildlife can also be present. Expect deer or birds near the airport. If you are new to the field, review the current Chart Supplement before you go and keep your departure and arrival planning conservative.
