Bangor Aviation Services is the on-field FBO. It carries AVGAS 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call ahead if you need ramp or service details. The airport also supports military activity. Air National Guard operations run weekdays from 1100 to 1930 Zulu. Range operations run weekdays from 1230 to 2100 Zulu except holidays. Expect extra traffic and bird activity during the published BASH periods in spring and fall. Runway 33 uses left traffic. Turbojet traffic is at 2,000 ft MSL unless instructed otherwise.
For a first-time arrival, the big items are the long runway, the mixed civilian and military use and the need to stay sharp on coordination. Prior permission is required for some Air National Guard ramp access and transient use. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any current restrictions before you go. The field sits in a coastal Maine environment. Expect weather and wind changes to matter on arrival.
