Wilson Industrial Air Center sits in Wilson, North Carolina. Field elevation is 159.6 ft MSL. The airport has three asphalt runways. The longest is 4,500 ft on 03/21. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Runway 03/21 has activated runway end identifier lights and medium intensity runway lights on CTAF. The runway end lights on 03/21 are out of service indefinitely. That matters at night or in reduced visibility.
The published remarks also show close-in obstructions on several ends. Runway 09 has trees near the departure end. Runway 15 has trees near the departure end. Runway 33 has a building close to the end. Runway 15/33 also has cracking. Foreign object debris and failed sealant are reported. There is no line of sight between runway ends, so do not assume you can visually confirm traffic from one end to the other. For clearance delivery, contact Washington ARTCC. If you need transient storage hangar space, call ahead. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field before arrival.
