A few published remarks matter for planning. Runway 17/35 is restricted to aircraft 7,500 lb or less. The west-side taxiway is closed to public use indefinitely. There are displaced threshold lights with a single green light on each side of the runway. Wildlife is present on and near the airport. Runway 17 has nearby obstacles off the right side and a drop-off close to the threshold. Runway 35 also has a published approach slope note at the displaced threshold. This is not a place to skim the remarks. Read the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
