Overview
Plattsmouth Municipal / Douglas V Duey Field (KPMV) sits in southeastern Nebraska, roughly 18 nautical miles from the Omaha metro area, and serves as a single-runway general aviation field for the surrounding region. The airport is uncontrolled and operates on a part-time attendance schedule, with fuel service adapting to that pattern. Business aviation traffic makes up the bulk of recorded operations, and customs clearance is handled through a nearby port of entry rather than onsite.

KPMV has a single runway, 16/34, measuring 5,500 feet long and 100 feet wide with a concrete surface. This is also the airport's longest paved surface, matching the field's max paved length figure. The runway supports the business aviation traffic that makes up most of the airport's recorded operations. There is no parallel or crosswind runway at this field.
Plattsmouth Municipal Airport, also known as Douglas V Duey Field, stocks both 100LL and Jet A fuel. 100LL is available 24 hours a day on a self-serve basis. Jet A is available after hours only on request, and pilots are advised to call ahead during attended hours to arrange it. Attended hours run Tuesday through Saturday, per the airport's posted schedule.
KPMV does not have onsite customs processing. The nearest customs facility is at KOMA, located about 21.33 nautical miles away. Aircraft requiring customs clearance in this area typically route through that facility rather than clearing at Plattsmouth directly. Flight crews should plan clearance arrangements in advance given this distance.
Plattsmouth Municipal Airport provides pilot-controlled lighting for night operations. The MIRL system on runway 16/34 is activated via CTAF, and REIL and PAPI units are available on both runway ends, also controlled through CTAF. Taxiway turnoff lights are limited to that function only, with no other taxiway lighting described. Pilots operating after hours should plan to use the CTAF activation procedure.
