Fort Peck Airport sits in Fort Peck, Montana. The field elevation is 2,290 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 2,700 ft of turf, so plan for soft-field handling and check the surface before you go. The airport is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local traffic or current published guidance says otherwise. That puts the light-piston pattern near 3,290 ft MSL based on field elevation. The published remarks say ultralights are on and in the vicinity of the airport. This is also listed for VFR use only, so keep the weather and visibility picture solid before you launch.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Fuel contact numbers are published in the Chart Supplement remarks. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. If you are planning a first visit, review the turf condition, expect non-towered traffic and be ready to self-announce clearly on CTAF. The runway is short by jet standards. It is a better fit for light aircraft and careful performance planning.
