There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts, so plan to verify services before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. The airport is in a rural Minnesota setting with no tower. That means self-announce discipline matters. Check the current Chart Supplement for any local procedures before flying in, especially if you plan to use the turf runway or arrive in winter conditions.
