ALBIA MUNI sits in Albia, Iowa. Field elevation is 963.7 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 13/31, which is 3,398 ft long on asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks say runway lighting is available from dusk to dawn. The PAPI and REIL on runways 13 and 31 are activated by CTAF. Runway 13 is the calm wind runway. That matters here because this is a small non-towered field, so plan your calls early and keep the pattern tight and predictable. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. For service, call 515-932-7815. No on-field FBOs are listed in the facts, so verify current fuel and service availability with the airport operator or the field directly before you launch.
