Henderson/Oxford is in Oxford, North Carolina, in Vance County. The field elevation is 526.3 ft MSL. It has one runway, 06/24, which is 5,501 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Raleigh Approach handles approach and departure work on 132.35 and 256.9.

The airport has one ILS approach, published for runway 06. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway ends do not have line of sight to each other, so keep that in mind on the CTAF. Runway 6 has a drop-off near the threshold and a powerline on the centerline about 1,000 ft out. Runway 24 also has a drop-off near the threshold. Trees east of the airport can hide the rotating beacon.

flyHNZ is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Fuel has 24-hour credit card service. For after-hours service, call the FBO directly. The airport is unattended on Thanksgiving and Christmas days. The runway lights are CTAF-controlled. PAPI on both runway ends operates continuously.
