Frequently asked questions
What runway is available at 18A?
Franklin-Hart (18A) has a single paved runway, 08/26, measuring 5,000 feet long and 75 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is the airport's only runway, and its 5,000-foot length is also listed as the maximum paved length available at the field. There is no parallel or crosswind runway option at this airport.
Is fuel available at Franklin-Hart Airport?
Franklin-Hart (18A) offers self-service 100LL and Jet A fuel, available 24 hours a day using a credit card. The airport itself is unattended, so fuel access does not depend on staff presence. Pilots relying on this field for fuel stops should plan around the self-service, card-based system rather than expecting attended service.
Does KGSP or another customs facility serve 18A for international arrivals?
Franklin-Hart (18A) has no customs processing on site. The nearest customs-equipped airport is Greenville-Spartanburg International (KGSP), located approximately 56 nautical miles away. Pilots arriving from outside the United States need to plan their customs clearance at KGSP or another suitable port of entry before or instead of landing directly at 18A.
What lighting is available at 18A after dark?
Franklin-Hart (18A) provides runway lighting from dusk until midnight local time. After midnight, pilots can activate the PAPI on both Runway 08 and Runway 26, along with the medium intensity runway lights (MIRL) for Runway 08/26, using the common traffic advisory frequency (CTAF). This pilot-controlled lighting keeps the field usable for arrivals outside the standard dusk-to-midnight window.
