RWY 28

Lima Allen County (KAOH) sits in Lima, Ohio. Field elevation is 975.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 10/28, at 6,000 ft asphalt. 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.

The field has one ILS approach to runway 28. Runway end identifier lights are active on 10 and 28. High intensity runway lights are also on 10 and 28. They are controlled by CTAF. The precision approach path indicators on both ends operate continuously. That makes night work and IFR arrivals more straightforward. Wildlife is a real factor here. Deer, birds and other animals are reported on and near the airport.

Allen County Regional Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. If you need clearance delivery, contact Columbus Approach on frequency. If that does not work, use the published phone number in the Chart Supplement. The airport is unattended on New Years Day, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. For a first-time arrival, verify the current Chart Supplement for any local procedures before you go. The runway is long enough for a wide range of general aviation traffic. The combination of no tower, wildlife and IFR traffic means you should stay sharp in the pattern and on final.
