RWY 18

Abrams Muni sits in Grand Ledge, Michigan. Field elevation is 841.1 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 3,200 ft asphalt. Runway 18/36 is 2,560 ft turf. There is no control tower. Use CTAF 122.7. No ILS approaches are published here.

The published traffic pattern altitude is 1,900 ft MSL for fixed wing aircraft. Helicopters use 1,700 ft MSL. That matters here because intensive night helicopter training is active on and near the field. Fixed wing pilots should stay aware of helicopter flow and avoid mixing patterns without good radio calls. Published remarks also ask pilots to avoid overflying Grand Ledge below 2,000 ft. Deer and large birds are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on departure and in the pattern.

GrandAir Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL. Runway 09 and runway 27 have PAPI. Runway 27 also has runway end identifier lights. Runways 09 and 27 have medium intensity runway lights. Runway 09 is unusable beyond 5 degrees right of centerline. There is also a 4 ft hill near the left side of runway 27 close to the threshold area, so plan your rollout and takeoff path with that in mind.
