Moraine Air Park (I73) sits in Dayton, Ohio. The field elevation is 720 ft MSL. It has one runway, 08/26, which is 3,500 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

No ILS approaches are published here. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. Columbus Approach handles clearance delivery. The published remarks call out a few things that matter on arrival. There is a lighted dike near the 08 end. There is also a levee south of and parallel to the runway. Trees sit north of the runway. A tree overhangs the parallel taxiway near runway end 26. Birds are reported in the area. Military jets also operate overhead inbound and outbound to KFFO, which is 12 NM northeast.

Moraine Airpark is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL. Fuel is not available after attended hours. Runway 08/26 has medium intensity lights that are activated by CTAF. They operate at low intensity from sunset to sunrise. For a first visit, pay close attention to the displaced-threshold obstacle notes on both ends. The airport is close enough to Dayton traffic and military activity that a careful radio scan is a good idea.
