Galion Muni is in Galion, Ohio in Crawford County. The field elevation is 1,224 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 3,504 ft long and is the longest runway on the field.
There is no control tower. Use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport uses Cleveland Approach for clearance delivery when needed. If approach is closed, the published remarks point pilots to Cleveland ARTCC for contact.
Galion Municipal Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. 100LL is available 24 hours a day self-service by credit card. Jet A after hours requires a phone call, so verify the current procedure before you go. The published remarks also note student training activity. That matters here because traffic can build up around the pattern.
There are a few items to brief before arrival. Runway 23 has a cataloged obstruction issue near the approach path. The published remarks also mention crops near the runway 23 side. Runway end identifier lights, PAPI and medium intensity runway lights are installed on 05/23. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
