Online Reviews Summary

Nakeen Airport (76Z) in Nakeen, US, is a small, privately-owned, and unattended general aviation airstrip. As such, there are no typical commercial traveler reviews concerning terminal facilities, security wait times, or customs/immigration experiences. Traveler sentiment and experiences are primarily relevant to general aviation pilots operating in challenging conditions. Overall satisfaction appears to be tied to its very existence and public accessibility, despite its significant limitations.

What Travelers Love
  • Public Accessibility: The airport is open to the public, providing an access point in the Nakeen area.
  • Basic Communication and Weather Information: Pilots can utilize a Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF) and access nearby AWOS-3P and ASOS weather reports for essential flight information.
Common Complaints
  • Poor Runway Conditions: The 800 x 30 ft dirt runway is in poor condition, unmaintained, and often soft and muddy when wet. It is also characterized by 24-inch grass and dips and humps. Pilots are specifically advised that the runway is not maintained and recommend a visual inspection before use.
  • Lack of Facilities and Services: The airport is unattended and offers no control tower, no airframe service, no powerplant service, and no bottled or bulk oxygen. There is also no wind indicator or segmented circle.
  • Wildlife Hazards: Moose, bear, and waterfowl are frequently in the vicinity of the runway, posing a significant hazard to aircraft operations.
  • No Instrument Procedures: There are no published instrument procedures at Nakeen Airport (76Z), limiting operations to visual flight rules (VFR).

Nakeen Airport (76Z) functions as a very basic, unmaintained airstrip primarily for general aviation. It presents significant operational challenges due to its poor runway condition, lack of services, and wildlife hazards. Travelers (pilots) should expect a rudimentary facility and plan accordingly for self-sufficiency and cautious operation.
