Dean Memorial Airport sits in Haverhill, New Hampshire. Field elevation is 581.7 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 01/19 is 2,511 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field is VFR only. That matters here because you need to plan for visual conditions and stay current on weather before departing or arriving.

Dean Memorial Airport has one on-field FBO. Dean Memorial Airport carries 100LL. Fuel is available 24 hours. The published remarks also note low intensity runway lights on 01/19 that are activated by CTAF. The first 185 ft of runway 01 is unlighted, so night ops need a careful look at the runway environment before landing. For clearance delivery, contact Boston ARTCC at the listed number. In winter, call ahead 24 hours before use. The airport is also a cold temperature airport, so altitude correction is required at or below minus 27 degrees Celsius.
