The remarks also call out obstructions near runway 01 and runway 09. Trees are noted in the approach path. Runway 19 has a 75-foot drop-off 50 feet from the end on both sides of the centerline. That makes a stabilized approach important here.

There is no on-field FBO listed. Fuel notes say to call 336-881-0248 for 100LL. Aircraft maintenance uses CTAF 122.9. For clearance delivery, contact Greensboro Approach at 336-333-5119. Runway 01/19 has low-intensity lighting. Runway 19 also has triple runway lights on a timer. Runway 01/19 has nonstandard end lights.
