Fairmont State Airport is in Fairmont, Nebraska. The field elevation is 1,636.4 ft MSL. It has two concrete runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 4,317 ft. There is no control tower, so plan to use CTAF 122.9 for self-announce traffic.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so verify the current traffic pattern in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go. The airport sits in open Nebraska terrain. Wind and crosswind planning matter more than terrain clearance. Runway 12/30 has published surface issues. The remarks call out significant cracks, spalls and alkali-silica reactivity on that runway, so check the current condition before you commit to it.
No on-field FBOs are listed. Fuel is handled through the airport manager. The published remarks say 100LL is available through the airport manager. Payment is cash or check only. The airport manager's residence is on the airport. Runway 17/35 has medium intensity lights that are activated by CTAF. If you need clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. First-time arrivals should verify current runway condition, lighting use and any local procedures before departure.
