HINCKLEY (0C2) is in Hinckley, Illinois. The field elevation is 760 ft MSL. It has one runway, 09/27, which is 2,640 ft of turf. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at about 1,760 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Glider operations and soaring are active here. The published remarks also say glider operations can extend from the surface up to 17,500 feet. Plan for mixed traffic and keep a sharp scan.
Runway 09/27 is not plowed. Use it at your own risk. The airport may also be unusable when the ground is very wet. There are 8-foot crops off both runway ends during the growing season. For clearance delivery, Chicago Approach is listed at 847-289-0926. No on-field FBOs are listed, so contact the airport operator directly before arrival or call the field on CTAF for current service availability.
