Potsdam Muni/Damon Fld sits in Potsdam, New York. Field elevation is 474.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 06/24 is 3,704 ft of asphalt, so plan performance with that length in mind. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 1,274.3 ft MSL.
No ILS approaches are published here. The field uses medium intensity runway lights on 06/24. Runway end identifier lights are available for both ends. Precision approach path indicators are also available for 06 and 24. Taxiway lights are controlled by the common traffic advisory frequency. The airport carries 100LL, JET A and JET A PRIST through Potsdam Municipal Airport on the field. 100LL is available 24 hours by self-service.
A few local items matter on a first visit. The runway condition is not maintained, so a visual inspection before use is recommended. Expect flight training traffic in the area. Deer are on and near the airport. Noise abatement is in effect. Make a left turn when able after departing runway 24. For clearance delivery, contact Boston ARTCC. If you need current operational details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly.
