RWY 06

Clarion County Airport sits in Clarion, Pennsylvania. The field elevation is 1,457.5 ft MSL. It has one runway, 06/24, which is 5,003 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. Use CTAF 122.8 for traffic and UNICOM 122.8 for local coordination.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway lighting is medium intensity. Runway end identifier lights are installed on 06 and 24. PAPI is available on both ends. That helps for night work or marginal VFR.

Clarion County Airport Authority is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A with PRIST. 100LL and Jet A with PRIST are available self-service 24 hours. Single-point refueling is also available upon request. The airport is unattended on Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day.

This is a non-towered field at moderate elevation. Expect to self-announce clearly. Watch density altitude on warm days. For clearance delivery, Cleveland ARTCC can be reached by phone. If you need anything beyond the published basics, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator before you go.
