Anderson Rgnl sits in Anderson, South Carolina. Field elevation is 781.9 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 05/23 at 6,002 ft. There is no control tower, so plan to work CTAF 123.6 and coordinate carefully in the pattern. The published pattern altitude is not listed. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the normal pattern at about 1,782 ft MSL here.
Runway 05 has an ILS and MALSR lighting. High intensity runway lights are on 05/23. PAPI is published on both ends of 05/23 and runs continuously. The on-field FBO is Anderson Regional Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. After hours, 100LL is available with credit card. The airport remarks also note wildlife near the field, with more activity at dawn and dusk. Runway 05/23 has a profile that limits visibility from the 05 threshold to the 23 threshold. Runway 17/35 has widespread cracks.
For a first-time arrival, the main things are the non-towered flow, the runway 05 ILS setup and the local surface and wildlife issues. Helicopters with skids are restricted to helipads or grassed areas. If you need clearance delivery help, use Greer Approach when available. If approach is closed, contact Atlanta ARTCC.
