RWY 25

Wiscasset Airport sits in Wiscasset, Maine. Field elevation is 70.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 07/25, which is 3,397 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. Traffic pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

No ILS approaches are published here. For IFR work, plan around the Portland approach frequencies listed for the area and verify current procedures before departure. The airport is close enough to the coast and local traffic flow can matter, so keep your scan tight on arrival and departure. Runway 25 has runway end identifier lights. Runways 07 and 25 have PAPI. Medium intensity runway lights are on 07/25 and are controlled by CTAF.

Wiscasset Airport has one on-field FBO, Wiscasset Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Fuel is available 24 hours by credit card. The published remarks also call out deer and other wildlife in the area. There is scrub brush near both runway ends, with the closest growth near the runway 07 end. For runway 07 departures, the published note says to climb straight out to 700 ft AGL because of a noise-sensitive area southwest of the departure end.
