Danville Airport sits in Danville, Pennsylvania. Field elevation is 559 ft MSL. It has one runway, 09/27, which is 3,000 ft asphalt. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a non-towered field with CTAF and UNICOM both on 122.8. Wilkes-Barre Approach handles clearance delivery. The published frequencies are 126.3 and 256.7. The runway lights are non-standard. Medium intensity runway lights on 09/27 are activated only at night. They are controlled by CTAF. The runway 27 end has displaced threshold lighting for night use, so brief your landing distance carefully before arrival.

The published remarks matter here. Deer and wildlife are reported on and near the airport. Radio-controlled airplane operations occur north of the runway. No propeller wash is allowed near the main hangar on the main ramp because of aircraft painting. There are no on-field FBOs listed. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF or UNICOM for current fuel and service availability. For clearance delivery after hours, the published phone number is 570-274-6190.
