Effingham County Rgnl is in Effingham, Illinois. The field elevation is 585.2 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 5,103 ft on runway 11/29. This is an untowered field, so standard CTAF self-announce work applies. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.725. No ILS approaches are published here.
The published pattern altitude is not listed, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Tate's Flying Service is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Lighting is available from dusk to dawn. Runway end identifier lights are available for 11 and 29. Runway 01 and 19 use pulsating sidelights. The runway lights are preset to low intensity. Use the CTAF to increase intensity and activate the lighting.
A few published remarks matter on arrival. The PAPI on runway 01 is only usable close to centerline. The same is true on runway 19, with a slightly wider tolerance. There are also trees and a silo near the right side of the transition area for runway 19. There is also a tree on the left side. If you need clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC before departure. For a first look, this is a straightforward Midwest airport with a long primary runway. Just brief the lighting, watch the runway 19 transition area and verify current procedures in the Chart Supplement before you go.
