RWY 23

Alexander Salamon Airport sits in West Union, Ohio. Field elevation is 896 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 3,558 ft of asphalt, which is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. Use CTAF and UNICOM 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a VFR-only airport. Runway end identifier lights are active on both ends. Medium intensity runway lights are installed on 05 and 23. PAPI is installed on runway 23. Runway markings on both ends are faded, so treat the painted cues with care on rollout and lineup. The published remarks also call out wildlife on and near the airport. Expect deer and birds in the area.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF or UNICOM for current service status before you go. The airport has reflector-marked taxiways. There are also published obstructions near both runway ends, including fences and brush. The 05 end also has a hill and trees on the extended centerline. That makes a stable approach and a careful departure profile important, especially in marginal VFR or at night.
