Gorilla Airport (11J) sits in Onondaga, Michigan. Field elevation is 980 ft MSL. This is a private heliport site with no listed runways. The published traffic pattern altitude is not given, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.
There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published. The published remarks say visual flight rules operations are provided. Takeoff and landing area markings are in place. Yellow cones mark the runway ends. Approach and departure are north-south. The remarks also note that the approach and departure routes are limited to the published corridors, so brief that before you go.
For clearance delivery, contact Great Lakes Approach at 269-459-3345. When approach is closed, contact Cleveland ARTCC at 440-774-0224 or 440-774-0490. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or call ahead before arrival. Deer and large birds are reported in and near the helipad area. A first-time pilot should treat this as a private-use site with limited published detail. Confirm current procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before flying in.
