Hayland Farms

Overview

Hayland is 160 acres of mostly grass land south and west of Dorrance, Kansas. The street address is: 19793 Plymouth Rd. Dorrance, Kansas. Elevation is 1732 MSL. At the time of the fly-in, there will be two available grass runways. Use 122.9 as the CTAF.

Just north of the barn is the wind tetrahedron. It provides accurate wind direction indications. Just as a reminder, it points in the direction you should land and take-off. Pilots, you will need to bring your own tie downs and/or chocks. The cork screw type tie down should work fine.

NOTE: Runway/landing strips are not connected via any taxiway. CAMPGROUND RUNWAY is not part of the 87KS airport registration. See description of CAMPGROUND RUNWAY below.

Primary Runway

The PRIMARY RUNWAY (87KS listed as a private runway) is located to the east side of the Hayland pond area. This is the runway of choice for most light aircraft. It is north/south orientation and is 2,400 ft x 60 ft. This year, aircraft parking will be on the west side of the runway. When landing, make sure your aircraft is significantly slowed prior to reaching the dipped part of the runway that is near the mid-point, to prevent going momentarily airborne. The south end of the runway passes between the Hangar and the Horse barn.

IMPORTANT: During the Fly-In (October 12th, 2024), 87KS (listed as a private runway), aircraft attending the event, permission is granted for landing and taking off. By virtue of landing, all owner/operators of aircraft automatically acknowledge the Hayland Disclaimers for utilizing the 87KS runway for any purpose, at any time. Aircraft utilizing the primary runway will exit to the west for parking in the north ramp area. The south ramp area is reserved for unloading and loading "Young Eagle" participants.

CAUTION!!!!!!! To avoid conflict with people on the ground – when landing to the north, touch down north of the hangar AND when landing to the south, stop short of the Hangar.

Campground Runway

The CAMPGROUND RUNWAY is located to the northwest of the pond area. This landing strip is of north/south orientation and is 1,400 ft by 60 ft.

This landing strip is NOT an official FAA designated runway of any type. Use of this landing strip is strictly at the aircraft owner/operator risk. This landing strip will only be used to provide direct access to the camping areas located near and along the tree lines.

This landing strip should not be used by pilots with under performing aircraft or pilots that lack short field experience. Check your aircraft’s performance capabilities before landing or taking off.

By virtue of landing, all owner/operators of aircraft automatically acknowledge the Hayland Disclaimers.
