Dillon Airport sits in Dillon, Montana at 5,244.7 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 17/35 at 6,501 ft. The airport is not towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Dillon Flying Service is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. After hours, the airport manager can be reached at 406-250-5280. Published remarks also note that runway visibility can be blocked by hangars and buildings. Confirm other traffic before takeoff. Runway 17 has distance markers every 1,000 ft. Runway 35 has the same markers. Medium intensity runway lights are available on both runways. PAPI is active on 17, 22 and 35. Departure from runway 04 is not authorized. This is a high-elevation field, so expect density altitude to matter, especially on warm days.
