Machias Valley Airport sits in Machias, Maine. Field elevation is 96.2 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 18/36 and it is 2,880 ft long on asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Runway 36 has REIL lighting. Medium intensity runway lighting is available on runways 18 and 36. It is controlled by the CTAF. 24-hour self-service 100LL is available with major credit cards. There are no on-field FBOs listed.
For a first visit, plan for an uncontrolled field with local traffic on 122.8. Deer and wildlife are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and landing. If you need IFR clearance, contact Boston ARTCC at 603-879-6859. The runway is short by transport standards, so check performance carefully before you go. The field is in coastal Maine. Expect to treat weather and wind shifts with the same caution you would use at any small non-towered airport.
