Hummel Field is in Saluda, Virginia. The field elevation is 30 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 3,150 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Hummel Field is unattended on Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year's. Hummel Field is on the field and carries AVGAS 100LL. Call (804) 758-4330 before arrival if you need fuel or local field info. The runway lights on 01/19 are activated by CTAF. The PAPI on both ends operates continuously. For clearance delivery, Norfolk Approach can be reached at 757-464-0757.
A few field details matter here. There is an 18-foot building near the departure end of runway 01. A road runs perpendicular to that same end. Birds and deer have been reported in the area during winter. Departing runway 01 or 19, climb to 500 feet before any turn out. Arriving aircraft should use a wide pattern to avoid the populated areas east and west of the airport. Drainage swales run the full length of the runway on both sides, so pay attention during rollout and taxi. The airport sits about 2 miles east-northeast of Topping.
