Southampton Airport (87N) sits in Southampton, New York. Field elevation is 5 ft MSL. This is a heliport, so there are no runways listed. No control tower is published. No ILS approaches are published either. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic only if that matches your operation and the current Chart Supplement. The field uses CTAF 122.9.

The published remarks matter here. Runway H1 has several close-in obstacles, including a stone wall, a road, houses, brush, an AWOS tower and buildings near the operating area. The area is also noise sensitive because of nearby homes. No idling or waiting on the helipad is permitted. For clearance delivery, contact New York Approach at 516-683-2449. The airport manager is Gary Goleski at 631-283-4269, extension 224.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need current services. First-time pilots should plan for a tight, obstacle-aware approach environment. Keep the noise issue in mind. Verify current procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
