Frankfort-Highland (6B4) sits in Utica/Frankfort, New York. Field elevation is 1,325 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 13/31, which is 2,750 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Davand Aviation is on the field. Fuel grades are not reported in the facts, so verify with the FBO directly before you go. Self-serve fuel is available. Radio-controlled lighting is available too. The remarks also note that low-intensity runway lights on 13/31 are not available to transient aircraft.
This is a field where runway-end awareness matters. The Chart Supplement notes a road close to the runway end plus trees near both ends, with a steep dropoff near the 31 threshold on both sides. Markings on both runway directions are faded. Geese are reported in the area during spring and fall. The airport also has a model plane club on the field. For clearance delivery, contact Syracuse Approach at 315-455-6218. Provided operations at the airport are coordinated with Utica Air Traffic Control Tower. Check the current Chart Supplement before flying in, especially if you are planning a night arrival or anything beyond a simple VFR stop.
