DS Butler Farm and Airfield sits in Oak Ridge, North Carolina. Field elevation is 950 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the published data, so verify the usable surface and length with the current FAA Chart Supplement or the airport operator before you go. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator says otherwise. The published remarks matter here. Takeoffs are from runway 19 and landings are on runway 01 because of the slope. Runway 19 also has wire markers on a power line about 180 ft from the threshold. The markers are 35 ft above the threshold. A road is about 10 ft above the threshold. Trees about 70 ft high line both sides of the runway about 70 ft from the centerline.
This is VFR only. Establish compatible operations with Greensboro tower before arrival. Clearance delivery is handled by Greensboro Approach at 336-333-5119. No on-field FBOs are listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone if you need current services before flying in.
