Harold Davidson Fld sits in Vermillion, South Dakota. Field elevation is 1,146.7 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 12/30, at 4,105 ft of concrete. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. No ILS approaches are published here.
For radio work, CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Sioux City Approach handles clearance delivery at 124.6 and 307.0. When Sioux City Approach is closed, clearance delivery goes to Minneapolis ARTCC. The field has one on-field FBO, Harold Davidson Field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card. Automated UNICOM is also available.
Runway lighting is medium intensity on 12 and 30. The PAPI is activated for both runway ends. That helps at night or in marginal light. One item to keep in mind is bird activity. Waterfowl and birds are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on arrival and departure. If you need current noise or local operating limits, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
