Common Complaints

Unattended Operations: The airport is unattended, meaning there is no on-site staff for direct services or assistance, which may require pilots to be self-sufficient.
Limited Services: There are no airframe or powerplant repair services available on-site, requiring pilots to seek maintenance elsewhere.
Wildlife and Crop Dusters: Pilots should be aware of wildlife on and in the vicinity of the airport, as well as numerous crop dusting aircraft operating nearby.
Unusable PAPI: Recent notices (NOTAMs) indicate that the PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator) on both Runway 14 and 32 is currently unusable.
No Commercial Passenger Facilities or Customs: As a general aviation airport, K9V5 lacks traditional terminal facilities, security checkpoints, or customs/immigration services for commercial travelers.
