Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KUZA?
Rock Hill / York County / Bryant Field, identified as KUZA, has a single paved runway, 02/20, measuring 5,500 feet long and 100 feet wide. The surface is asphalt. This runway length supports most light and midsize business jet operations without restriction. There is no second runway, so wind coverage depends entirely on the 02/20 alignment. Pilots should plan around a single strip when crosswinds are a factor.
Is KUZA a towered airport?
KUZA, Rock Hill / York County / Bryant Field, is non-towered, so traffic pattern coordination relies on CTAF procedures rather than a control tower. A ground communication outlet is available on frequency 121.725 to reach Charlotte Approach for clearance delivery purposes. If that FSS frequency cannot be reached, pilots are advised to contact Charlotte Approach directly for clearance delivery. This setup is typical for reliever fields near a major Class B airport such as Charlotte / Douglas International, located about 14.49 nautical miles away.

Outside these hours, fuel access depends on self-service or prior arrangement, since the airport is not continuously staffed.
