Casselton Robert Miller Rgnl (5N8) sits in Casselton, North Dakota at 933.3 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 3,901 ft of concrete, so plan for a short-field mindset if you are bringing in a heavier airplane. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Fargo Approach handles approach and departure work on 120.4 and 377.15. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport carries a magnetic variation of 6°. The on-field FBO is AIC Maintenance. It carries 100LL. Self-serve credit card 100LL is available 24 hours. There is also an aircraft paint shop on the field.
A few operational notes matter here. Runway end identifier lights are on runway 31. Precision approach path indicators are on runway 13. Medium intensity runway lights are on both runway ends. Numerous agricultural operations occur from May through October, so expect local traffic and stay sharp on the CTAF. If you need clearance delivery, Fargo Approach is listed for that. For winter conditions or snow removal status, call ahead before you launch.
