Kankakee Airport (3KK) sits in Kankakee, Illinois. Field elevation is 625 ft MSL. The airport has two turf runways. The longest is Runway 09/27 at 2,644 ft. Runway 18/36 is 2,564 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 1,425 ft MSL. That matters on a short turf field like this one. Runway 09/27 has nonstandard low intensity lights with variable intensity and spacing. The lights use non-frangible mountings. Contact the manager in advance for runway lights.
The published remarks also flag displaced thresholds on Runways 27 and 36. Runway 36 has a 63-foot tree 990 feet from the displaced threshold, so plan your arrival with that in mind. Runway 27 also has a 400-foot overrun beyond the end. Ultralight activity is on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan in the pattern and on taxi. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field directly before you go.
