Frequently asked questions
What is the runway configuration at KPMH?
Greater Portsmouth Regional (KPMH) has a single paved runway, 18/36, measuring 5,001 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is the only runway serving the field, so wind conditions across its full length matter for arrival and departure planning. The runway length supports most business aviation aircraft operating into this airport.
Is Jet A1+ fuel readily available at KPMH?
Jet A1+ is available at Greater Portsmouth Regional (KPMH) but only on a full-service basis, unlike the self-service 100LL option. After-hours Jet A1+ service requires contacting the airport manager directly rather than relying on automated fueling. Dispatchers should plan fuel requests around staffed hours to avoid delays tied to full-service-only availability.
Does KPMH have customs clearance onsite?
Greater Portsmouth Regional (KPMH) does not offer customs clearance onsite. The nearest customs facility is at Huntington Tri-State (KHTS), located approximately 31.37 nautical miles away. Operators requiring customs processing should route through KHTS and coordinate arrival plans accordingly, since KPMH itself provides no clearance capability.
