Helena, MT - KHLN

Airport last visited September 5, 2022

Pattern/Approach

Runway 9 has a standard left pattern, right for runway 27. Arriving from the east, an approach from Bozeman to Canyon Ferry Lake sets up a nice straight-in to the 9000' long runway 27. The 4644' long runway 5/23 is also available, left pattern for runway 5 and right pattern for 23. MacDonald Pass and highway 12 provide a convenient route arriving or departing westbound.

Parking and Fueling

Full and self-serve 100LL are available at Exec Air Montana, which is very helpful in coordinating lodging and dining options.

Transportion

Rental cars and crews cars are available from Exec Air Montana.

Dining

We re-acquainted ourselves with the best broasted chicken around at the Suds Hut, plus we enjoyed delicious walleye and corn on the cob at Schooners Bar and Grill on Canyon Ferry Lake.

Lodging

Exec Air provided an FBO discount at the Helena Hampton Inn.

To-Do

We re-acquainted ourselves with Helena after being away for 39 years. Helena is a great base to explore Montana.
