North Central State Airport is in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The field elevation is 440.5 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 5,000 ft on runway 05/23. The other runway is 15/33 at 3,211 ft. There is no control tower, so expect non-towered traffic flow on CTAF 123.075.
One ILS approach is published for runway 05. The airport also has approach lighting on 05 and runway lights on both runways. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport uses noise abatement procedures. Check with the airport manager before you go.
FlightLevel Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call (401) 333-8503 for current service details. The airport also has seasonal skydiving on the northeast side of the airfield. Watch for birds, wildlife and deer. The remarks also note numerous unlighted obstructions up to 150 ft AGL around the field. That matters here. Runway 05 has trees near the threshold area. Plan your arrival with that in mind. If approach control is closed, clearance delivery goes through Boston ARTCC. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any runway condition notes before you launch.
