Henderson Executive Airport sits in Las Vegas, Nevada. Field elevation is 2,491.4 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 6,501 ft on 17R/35L. The control tower is open from 0600 to 2000. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless current local guidance says otherwise.
This is a busy Las Vegas area field, so expect a lot of traffic flow and stay sharp on taxi. The published remarks call out a runway safety item on 17R/35L. Verify your position on the runway before takeoff. Do not line up on the parallel taxiway by mistake. Commercial air tour traffic also arrives from the southeast daily at a light hour. That is worth keeping in mind when you are sequencing in the pattern.
Henderson Executive Airport, the on-field FBO, carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. 100LL self-serve fuel is available 24 hours a day. Runway lighting is installed on both runways. PAPI and runway end identifier lights are also published. If the tower is closed, contact Las Vegas Approach on 125.475 for clearance delivery. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any special event prior permission required notices before you go.
