Watervliet Muni sits in Watervliet, Michigan. The field elevation is 656 ft MSL. It has two turf runways. The longest is runway 02/20 at 2,600 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 1,656 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. Runway 02/20 is soft when wet and during spring because of poor drainage. Runway 02 and runway 20 both have 3-foot yellow cones marking the runway and displaced threshold. The runway 20 approach also has trees near the threshold area, so plan that side with care. Runway 07/25 is listed as unverified. Runway 25 is defined by mowing.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport manager before arrival if you need local support. Unmanned aircraft systems, ultralight aircraft and powered parachute activity also occur on the field. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. Medium intensity runway lights for 02/20 are activated by the CTAF.
