RWY 18

Findlay Airport is in Findlay, Ohio. The field elevation is 812.8 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 18/36 at 6,499 ft. There is no control tower, so use CTAF 122.725 for local traffic and UNICOM. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

No ILS approaches are published here. The airport does have runway lighting and PAPI on both runways. Runway 18/36 also has high intensity runway lights that are controlled on CTAF. Runway 07, 25 and 36 have runway end identifier lights. Published remarks note birds and wildlife on and near the airport. That is worth planning for on departure and arrival.

Findlay Airport has one on-field FBO. Findlay Airport carries 100LL and Jet A with Prist. Call the FBO at (419) 422-4182 before you go if you need transient hangar space. The published remarks also say to contact Toledo Approach at 419-865-1495 for clearance delivery if you cannot reach Flight Service on the usual frequency. The runway 07 approach has nearby trees. Runway 25 has a blast fence and a road close to the threshold. That makes a stabilized approach important here.
