Air Harbor (W88) sits in Greensboro, North Carolina at 822 ft MSL. This field has no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so light piston pilots should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. There are no published ILS approaches. The airport has one runway, 09/27, with a longest published length that is not listed in the facts. The runway markings are unusual. The north 25 feet is asphalt. The south 40 feet is turf. Runway numbers are faded. Yellow cones mark the usable width up to 100 feet. Night operations deserve extra caution because the medium intensity runway lights are nonstandard. The edge lights vary in position, which can make pavement alignment hard to judge after dark.
Murphy Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card service. Deer are reported on and near the airport. There is also a gravel access road 60 feet from the runway 27 end. Trees near the runway 27 threshold are another factor to brief before arrival. First-time visitors should review the current Chart Supplement and call the airport operator or Murphy Aviation if they need current runway condition or lighting details before they launch.
