Miller Fld is in Valentine, Nebraska. The field elevation is 2,595.4 ft MSL. It has two concrete runways. The longest is 4,705 ft on runway 14/32. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Sandhills Aero. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Fuel is listed as available 24 hours with credit card or by prior arrangement. The published remarks also note runway lighting on both runways. PAPI is installed on 03, 21, 14 and 32. REIL is on runway 32.
This is a higher-elevation Nebraska field, so performance planning matters. The published remarks also call out terrain and obstacle effects on the approaches. Runway 14 has a steepened approach path because of trees near the displaced threshold. Runway 21 also has an obstacle on the approach path. Runway 32 has surveyed obstacle data near the runway edge. Check the current Chart Supplement before you go. Use the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone if you need current operational details.
