Frequently asked questions
Is KAHC open to civilian traffic without restriction?
Amedee AAF (KAHC) is a private-use military airfield, not a public civilian airport. Prior permission is required from the airfield coordinator before any landing, and an approach call is also required ahead of touchdown. Daylight operations only are permitted unless a waiver is granted by the airfield manager. Dispatchers should plan clearance well in advance given these access controls.
What is the runway configuration at Amedee AAF?
Amedee AAF (KAHC) has a single paved runway, 09/27, measuring 10,000 feet long and 150 feet wide with a PEM surface. This length supports a wide range of aircraft types, though the airfield's private military status and unattended schedule limit its practical use for business aviation. The maximum paved runway length reported for the field matches this single strip.
Where does KAHC handle customs clearance for arriving aircraft?
KAHC does not offer onsite customs clearance. The nearest customs airport of entry is Reno International (KRNO), located approximately 49 nautical miles away. Operators planning international arrivals into Amedee AAF need to route customs processing through Reno rather than expecting service at the field itself.
How much business aviation traffic does Amedee AAF see?
Amedee AAF (KAHC) recorded just 3 business aviation operations for all of 2025 according to FAA TFMSC data, out of 22 total annual operations at the field. Activity was concentrated in June and October, with no business aviation movements recorded in most other months. This makes KAHC a very low-traffic option, consistent with its private military use status and unattended field designation.
