Candlelight is in New Milford, Connecticut. The field elevation is 665 ft MSL. This is a heliport with no runways listed. No ILS approaches are published. CTAF is 122.9. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL only as a standard light-piston reference if you are operating there, then verify the current Chart Supplement before flight.
This is a daytime VFR-only operation. The heliport is closed except by prior permission required. Call 203-648-6782 before planning an arrival. Clearance delivery for IFR-related coordination is handled through New York Approach at 516-683-2849. Published remarks also note a landing fee per landing. There is a 28-foot building 135 feet east of the pad, so keep that in mind on approach and departure. The pavement area measures 28 feet by 28 feet. The turf area measures 50 feet by 50 feet.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. If you need fuel or other ground support, contact the airport operator directly before arrival. The published remarks also say ingress and egress are limited to Candlelight Farms Airport approaches. That makes this a field where local procedure matters. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
