Herington Regional Airport sits in Herington, Kansas. The field elevation is 1,480.6 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 4,184 ft long and paved concrete. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. Runway end identifier lights are installed on 17 and 35. PAPI is installed on both ends. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 17/35 and are controlled by CTAF.
Herington Regional Airport carries AVGAS 100LL through the on-field FBO, Herington Regional Airport. 100LL is also available 24 hours via self-service. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City Air Route Traffic Control Center. The published remarks also note radio-controlled model aircraft activity on weekends and holidays. That is worth keeping in mind if you are planning a busy arrival or departure window. The airport is a good one to brief carefully for lighting, CTAF use and local traffic flow before you go in.
