Frequently asked questions
What runways are available at KJHN?
Stanton County Municipal (KJHN) has two paved runways. Runway 17/35 is the primary strip at 5,200 feet long and 75 feet wide with a concrete surface, suitable for most business turboprops and light jets. Runway 08/26 is a shorter asphalt crosswind runway at 1,889 feet long and 60 feet wide, better suited to lighter piston traffic.
Is fuel available at Stanton County Municipal?
Stanton County Municipal (KJHN) stocks both 100LL and Jet A fuel on the field. Attendance runs from 0800 to 1800 daily, so fuel service should be planned within that window. Operators arriving outside those hours should coordinate in advance given the airport's unattended status the rest of the day.
Does KJHN have customs service for international arrivals?
KJHN does not have customs service on the airport. The nearest customs facility is Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport (KAMA), located about 142 nautical miles away. Crews arriving from outside the United States need to route their customs clearance through that airport rather than at Stanton County Municipal directly.
What operational conditions should pilots know about at Stanton County Municipal?
Stanton County Municipal (KJHN) reports surface cracking on its runway pavement, so pilots should expect some surface irregularity during landing and takeoff rolls. Runway 17/35 lighting is preset to low intensity from dusk until 2200 local; to increase intensity or activate lighting after that time, pilots must use CTAF. Clearance delivery for the field is handled through Kansas City ARTCC.
