Judge Lewis Fld/Mount Ayr Muni sits in Mount Ayr, Iowa. The field elevation is 1,265 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 2,600 ft long. The airport is unattended by a control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published for 1Y3. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at 2,265 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. The runway surface is asphalt-turf. The published remarks matter here. Runway 17/35 has yellow cone threshold markings. The displaced threshold and runway edges are 60 ft from the centerline. There is also a 35-foot-wide asphalt strip in the middle of the 120-foot-wide turf runway. The airport is not lighted. Plan daylight operations unless you have current local guidance.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF for current service availability. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. If you are planning a night arrival, a low-weather arrival, or a first visit, verify the current Chart Supplement before you go. The runway length is modest. The field sits over 1,200 ft MSL. The mixed-surface layout deserves a careful look on short-field performance and rollout.
