RWY 27

Charles A Chase Jr Meml Fld sits in Dover/Foxcroft, Maine. Field elevation is 520 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 09/27, which is 2,926 ft of turf and the longest runway on the field. It is an untowered airport. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless current local guidance says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 1,520 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The runway is not a simple one to read at a glance. The threshold on 09/27 is unmarked and undefined. There is also no line of sight between runway ends.

The published remarks matter here. Deer are reported on and near the airport. Runway 27 has trees close in on the approach side. There is also a roadway across the runway and a rock and dirt pile off to the right near the threshold. Runway 9/27 also has larger rock in the center section of the runway between about 400 ft and 600 ft from the 9 threshold. If you are new to the field, get the current Chart Supplement and talk to the airport operator before arrival. For clearance delivery contact Boston ARTCC at 603-879-6859.
