KLYH is in Lynchburg, Virginia. The field elevation is 938.2 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 7,100 ft on 04/22. The tower is open daily from 0630 to 2230. One ILS approach is published for runway 04. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Two FBOs are on the field. Freedom Aviation carries 100LL and Jet A. Lynchburg Regional Airport carries 100LL. If you need current service details, call them directly before arrival. Published remarks also note extensive flight training in the area. Birds and other wildlife are present on and near the airport. Taxiway G is uncontrolled and not visible from the tower, so keep your head on a swivel when moving around the ramp and taxiways.
Runway 17/35 is shorter at 3,386 ft. It also has a 300 ft overrun at each end. The remarks say runway 17/35 is not available for certain larger passenger operations. When the tower is closed, lighting and clearance procedures change. Use the current Chart Supplement and the airport operator for the latest details before a night arrival or any special operation.
