Raleigh Executive Jetport at Sanford-Lee County sits in Sanford, North Carolina. Field elevation is 246.6 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. It is 03/21 and it is 6,501 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so light piston traffic should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The field has one ILS approach. It is for runway 03. Raleigh Approach handles clearance delivery. Published remarks also say to use runway 03 for calm wind operations. That matters here because the field has a single runway. The published lighting setup is tied to CTAF control at night. Lighting is dusk to dawn. Runway 03 has a MALSR. Runway 21 has REILs. High intensity runway lights are on both ends.
Raleigh Executive Jetport is home to Raleigh Executive Jetport FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. 100LL is available 24 hours self-service with credit card. Pilots should also note the taxiway A drop-off near A3 and A4. That is a real taxi hazard. The airport sits in the Raleigh area, so expect busy local traffic. Keep an eye on the current Chart Supplement for any updated procedures before you go.
