Georgetown-Scott County Regional Airport sits in Georgetown, Kentucky at 947.7 ft MSL. It has one runway, 03/21, which is 5,498 ft long. The field is not towered. Pattern altitude is not published, so light piston traffic should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan your arrival with the current approach chart and the Lexington frequencies if you need IFR support.

The airport is set up for VFR use. The published remarks say the field is for visual flight rules use only. Runway 03/21 has REILs, PAPI and medium intensity runway lights. Fuel is available 24 hours a day with a credit card. The on-field FBO is Georgetown-Scott County Regional Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Call (502) 863-6320 for current service details. For clearance delivery, contact Lexington Approach at 859-514-7890. After hours, the manager number is 859-608-8858.

For a first-time pilot, the main things to plan for are the non-towered environment. The published VFR-only note matters too. Approach support comes from Lexington. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field. Use the CTAF for traffic calls. The windsock is on the CTAF frequency.
