George T Lewis Airport (KCDK) is in Cedar Key, Florida. Field elevation is 11 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 2,302 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field sits in a low coastal area. Expect sea breeze changes and pay close attention to winds and surface conditions. Published remarks also note that seagulls are present on the runway. Airport lights are not reliable, so night operations deserve extra caution.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan on confirming services with the airport operator or the field directly before arrival. The published remarks also flag runway 05 obstacle issues near the approach. Runway 23 has a road close to the departure end. There is also an obstacle clearance slope on approach. The taxiway is closed to aircraft and used as a public road. The helicopter pad northwest of runway 05/23 is for emergency use only. For clearance delivery, contact Jacksonville ARTCC at 904-845-1592.
