Downey/Hyde Memorial Airport sits in Downey, Idaho. The field elevation is 4,919 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,550 ft asphalt, which is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport has a few items that matter on a first visit. The ramp and taxiway asphalt is reported as poor. Farm machinery up to 20 feet high may be near the approach to Runway 17. Fences surround all sides of the runway. A road also runs parallel to the runway.

Lighting is pilot-controlled on 122.8. Key the mic five times to turn on the rotating beacon. Use the same method for the low intensity runway lights on 17/35. The south 1,000 feet of runway lights are 1 to 2 feet below the runway surface. Runway 35 has a curved first 900 feet that bends 15 degrees to the east. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival.
