Danville Rgnl sits in Danville, Virginia at 571.1 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 5,900 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.05. One ILS approach is published for runway 02. Published pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL for light aircraft. Turbine traffic uses 1,500 ft AGL.
AU Aviation Services is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (434) 791-5750 for current service details before you go. The airport remarks matter here. Birds and deer are present on and near the field. Runway 02 is the calm wind runway. The airport is listed for VFR daylight use only. Coordination with Danville Municipal Airport is required. A follow-on FAA inspection is pending.
Runway 02/20 is 5,900 ft. Runway 13/31 is 3,910 ft. Runway lighting is available on both runways. Approach lighting and PAPI are published on multiple ends. Trees penetrate the transitional surface near runway 31 for the first 1,000 ft. That makes a careful look at departure and arrival profiles smart, especially if you are new to the airport. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flying in. That is the best source for any updated operating limits or local procedures.
