Dillon County Airport (KDLC) sits in Dillon, South Carolina. The field elevation is 133.1 ft MSL. It has one runway, 07/25, which is 3,000 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

No ILS approaches are published here. The airport uses CTAF 122.9. Florence Approach handles clearance delivery on 118.6 and 341.7. If approach is closed, contact Jacksonville ARTCC directly at the number listed in the Chart Supplement. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or call the field before you go.

A published remark notes trees near the Runway 25 approach. They sit parallel to the runway about 135 feet from the centerline on both sides. That is worth keeping in mind on short final, especially if you are coming in low or at night. The airport has also been surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey. For a first visit, treat this as a small non-towered field with one short runway and no published ILS. Check the current Chart Supplement for any changes before departure.
