RWY 21

Chilhowee Airport sits near Benton, Tennessee. Field elevation is 769.3 ft MSL. It has one runway, 03/21, which is 1,938 ft of turf. This is a non-towered field. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a VFR-only airport. The runway surface is uneven. The center 50 ft of the runway is marked with in-ground white markers. Runway 03 has a displaced threshold with a published 21 to 1 approach ratio. Runway 21 also has a displaced threshold. Its approach ratio is 69 to 1. Threshold 21 is marked with white cones on the east side.

Glider activity occurs in VFR conditions. The glider traffic is west of the airport. That matters on arrival and departure. Check the pattern and keep your scan outside. For clearance delivery, contact Chattanooga Approach at 423-855-6478. When approach is closed, contact Atlanta ARTCC at 770-210-7692. Overnight tie-down is available through the airport manager. No on-field FBOs are listed, so confirm any services directly before you go.
