Billy Mitchell (KHSE) sits in Hatteras, North Carolina. Field elevation is 16.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 07/25 is 3,002 ft long with asphalt pavement. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Clearance delivery is handled through Cherry Point Approach at 252-466-5960. The airport is in Cape Hatteras National Seashore. Keep 2,000 ft vertical and horizontal distance from seashore beaches. That matters here because the field sits low and exposed near the coast. Expect sand dunes, scrub trees and bird activity around the runway environment. Published remarks also note high speed low level military operations in the area.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone for current fuel and service availability before you go. The airport is closed 30 minutes after sunset until 30 minutes before sunrise. All nighttime operations are prohibited. Additional aircraft parking is available on the mid-field apron. Runway 07 and 25 both have nearby dune and obstacle notes, so a careful look at the current Chart Supplement is smart before arrival.
