DIRT DOBBER'S GRASS STRIP
SHELBY, NC
Dirt Dobber'S Grass Strip, identified as NC97, is a privately owned, non-towered airfield in Shelby, North Carolina. A single turf runway, 08/26, serves the field at 1,600 feet long and 100 feet wide.
No instrument approach procedures are published, so the field is used under visual flight rules. As a non-towered field, it operates under see-and-avoid procedures, with pilots coordinating their own arrivals and departures. The field has no fuel sales on record. Its private-use designation means pilots need the owner's permission before landing.
The airport sits at 930 feet above mean sea level.
