Hinshaw (Greenacres) Airport (N61) sits in Liberty, North Carolina. Field elevation is 750 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 03/21 and the published remarks say it is 50 feet wide and maintained regularly. No tower is listed. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published, so plan on VFR only. The published pattern altitude is not given, so use the current Chart Supplement before you go if you need the exact traffic pattern entry and altitude.
This field has several items a first-time pilot should respect. Livestock and wildlife are reported on and near the runway. There is a 4 foot fence at the end of runway 03 and along both sides of the runway in the primary surface. The controlling obstruction at runway 03 exceeds a 45 degree slope. There is also a pond 50 feet from the threshold of runway 21. Ultralight aircraft are active on and in the vicinity of the airport. The airport is in the traffic pattern of Causey Airport 2A5, 4 miles east, so keep your scan sharp in the local area. For clearance delivery, contact Washington ARTCC at 703-771-3587. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify current services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival.
