Starr-Browning Airstrip is in Browning, Montana. The field elevation is 4,656.5 ft MSL. It has one runway, 06/24, which is 4,051 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at about 5,656.5 ft MSL based on the field elevation. CTAF is 122.9. The runway lights on 06/24 are pilot-controlled through CTAF.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts, so plan on verifying services before you go. The published remarks matter here. Livestock are reported on and near the airport. Snow removal is irregular. Runway 06/24 also has nonstandard markings, including no edge lines and no marker bars. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. This is a high-elevation field in northern Montana, so performance planning matters. Check density altitude, runway condition and winds before departure. If you need current operational details, call the airport operator or check the current FAA Chart Supplement.
