Sussex Airport is in Sussex, New Jersey. Field elevation is 421.6 ft MSL. It has one runway, 03/21, which is 3,506 ft long. The airport is non-towered. Traffic pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
There are no published ILS approaches here. For clearance delivery, Newark Approach is listed in the remarks. The airport uses UNICOM and CTAF 122.7. Runway 03 REIL is out of service indefinitely. Runway 21 REIL is also out of service indefinitely. The main taxiway southwest 1,500 ft is closed. Taxiway width and runway markings are non-standard. Aircraft operations are permitted on blacktop only.
No on-field FBOs are listed. Self-serve fuel is available. Verify current fuel availability with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go. A parachute jump aircraft and drop zone are on the southwest side of the runway. Deer and birds are reported on and near the airport. Runway 03 and 21 both have published approach clearance slope notes to the displaced threshold, so pay close attention on arrival. This is an older field built before 1959, so expect a layout that may not feel standard if you have not been here before.
