RWY 18

Fort Kent Muni sits in Fort Kent, Maine. Field elevation is 708 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 2,140 ft of turf with magnetic headings of 181° and 1°. That makes it a short-field turf strip, so plan accordingly if you are bringing in a heavier airplane or operating after rain or during soft-field conditions.

There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here, so you will be working with non-precision or visual options only. The pattern altitude is not published. For light piston traffic, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. At this field that works out to about 1,708 ft MSL.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Plan on verifying services directly with the airport operator before you go. There are no published remarks in the cleaned Chart Supplement data. Fort Kent is a northern Maine airport, so weather and surface conditions can change fast. Check the current Chart Supplement for any local notes before departure. If you are new to the field, treat the turf runway and short length as the main operational limits.
