Plantation Airpark is in Sylvania, Georgia. Field elevation is 190.3 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 5,501 ft on runway 05/23. Runway 15/33 is 3,787 ft. There is no control tower, so expect self-announce traffic on CTAF 122.8. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Aeroborne Enterprises is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card service. The runway lighting on 05/23 is preset to low intensity from dusk to 0100. After 0100, use the CTAF to increase intensity and activate the lights. The PAPI on 05 and 23 is also controlled by CTAF.
A first-time pilot should watch for deer in and near the airport. Military operations need 24-hour prior permission. Clearance delivery is handled through Jacksonville ARTCC. This is a non-towered field with a long primary runway, so plan for normal local traffic discipline and verify current procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before departure.
