Downtown Airport (3DW) is in Springfield, Missouri. The field elevation is 1,375 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 11/29 is 4,037 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower, so CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Springfield Approach uses 124.95 and 353.925 for approach and departure work. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 2,375 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. Springfield Flying Service is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. Call them at (417) 862-2418 before you go.
A few operational details matter here. The runway lights are nonstandard medium intensity lights. They are activated by clicking the CTAF three times. There is a 600 ft lighted tower 950 ft north of the Runway 29 threshold. The runway safety area beyond Runway 29 is not standard and has a large slope. Clearance delivery can be handled through Springfield Approach at 417-868-5620 or 417-868-5619. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
