Jerry Tyler Meml Airport sits in Niles, Michigan. Field elevation is 750.4 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 4,100 ft. Runway 04/22 is 3,316 ft. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Runway 15 has medium intensity lighting, runway end identifier lights and PAPI. Runway 33 also has runway end identifier lights and PAPI. The published remarks call out cracked and broken pavement on 04/22. They also note numerous cracks on 15/33. Trees near the runway environment affect the approach paths. Pay close attention on final. The field also has self-serve 100LL.
Jerry Tyler Memorial Airport is an untowered field, so use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic calls. South Bend Approach handles the published approach frequencies. If you need clearance delivery and ground communications are not available, the Chart Supplement says to contact South Bend Approach or Chicago ARTCC depending on hours. First-time arrivals should plan for a small-field pattern. Watch the runway environment closely. Verify current notes in the Chart Supplement before departure.
