Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport (KGKT) sits in Sevierville, Tennessee. Field elevation is 1,013.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 10/28, which is 5,506 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. Knoxville Approach handles departure and approach services on 132.8 and 360.8.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A.
This is a good field to brief carefully before arrival. Runway end identifier lights are active on 10 and 28. The runway lights are pilot-controlled on CTAF. The PAPI on 10 and 28 operates continuously. The remarks also note deer on and near the airport. Runway 28 has a published displaced-threshold approach note, so plan your descent and landing distance with that in mind. If you need a clearance, contact Knoxville Approach at the published phone numbers before departure.
