Butler County Rgnl/Hogan Fld sits in Hamilton, Ohio. Field elevation is 631.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 12/30, which is 5,500 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,632 ft MSL.

Runway 30 has an ILS. The field also has medium intensity runway lights, runway end identifier lights on both ends and PAPI on runways 12 and 30. The published remarks call out wildlife in the area. They also note obstructions near runway 12, including brush close to the departure end and a 60-foot tree off the right side. That makes a careful runway 12 departure worth planning.

Cincinnati Jet Center is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Prior coordination is required for transient hangar use. For clearance delivery, contact Cincinnati Approach at 859-372-6440. Use CTAF 123.05 for local traffic. This is a non-towered field. Keep your scan tight. Expect standard self-announce procedures.
