RWY 18W

SKYYHARBOUR sits in Kalamazoo, Michigan at 853 ft MSL. It has two water runways. The longest is 18W/36W at 7,920 ft. The other is 05W/23W at 6,440 ft. No ILS approaches are published here. CTAF is 118.3.

This is a non-towered field. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks matter here. For clearance delivery, contact Great Lakes Approach at 269-459-3344. When Approach is closed, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. Operations also depend on the agreement with AZO tower. During AZO tower hours, aircraft must talk to AZO tower before operating within AZO Class D airspace. You also need AZO ATIS before calling AZO tower. AZO tower does not provide ATC services for 11C. AZO CTAF is the CTAF for both airports at all times.

No on-field FBOs are listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current support and fuel availability. For a first-time arrival, the main things to sort out are the water runway layout. Also plan for the shared CTAF with AZO. Follow the published coordination steps before moving in the area.
