Bluffton Airport sits in Bluffton, Ohio. The field elevation is 850.6 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 05/23 is asphalt and 4,126 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless current local guidance says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. The airport uses CTAF 122.8 and UNICOM 122.8. Published remarks say the REIL on 05 and 23, the PAPI on 23 and the MIRL on 05/23 are activated by CTAF. UNICOM is maintained irregularly, so do not count on it for routine coordination. The PAPI on runway 23 is unusable beyond 9 degrees right of centerline. Deer and birds are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on arrival and departure.
Bluffton Flying Service is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. For clearance delivery, contact Toledo Approach at 419-865-1495. If you are planning a night arrival or a first trip in, verify the current Chart Supplement and be ready for CTAF lighting procedures. The runway length is workable for light aircraft. The wildlife note and the lighting setup are the main items to brief before you go.
