Lincoln County Rgnl sits in Lincolnton, North Carolina. The field elevation is 877.9 ft MSL. It has one runway, 05/23, at 5,700 ft. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,877.9 ft MSL.
Runway 23 has the published ILS approach. The airport also has CTAF and UNICOM on 123.05. For clearance delivery, use 124.9 through the ground communications outlet when available, or contact Charlotte Approach if needed. The on-field FBO is Lincolnton-Lincoln County Regional Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (704) 735-0602 before you go if you need current ramp or fuel availability.
The published remarks matter here. Runway lighting is pilot-controlled on the CTAF. The runway end identifier lights and PAPI for 05 and 23 are also activated that way. Runway 23 has brush and drop-off issues near the end, so treat the departure and arrival end with care. Deer, coyote and birds are reported on and near the airport. This is a non-towered field near Charlotte airspace, so expect to self-announce early and stay sharp on sequencing.
