Ness City Muni (48K) sits in Ness City, Kansas. Field elevation is 2,321.6 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 4,000 ft long with a concrete surface. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. At this elevation, expect a little more takeoff and climb performance planning than you would at a low field. The published remarks also note runway end identifier lights, PAPI on both ends and medium intensity runway lights on 17/35. All lighting is controlled by CTAF. That makes it important to brief your lighting plan before you get there.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. If you need fuel or ramp details, contact the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival. A public phone is available at 785-798-2702. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. The published remarks also say a clear approach is maintained to each runway with a 20 to 1 glide slope and a 7 to 1 transitional surface. That is worth keeping in mind on arrival and departure.
