Charles E Grutzmacher Muni sits in Onaga, Kansas. Field elevation is 1,183 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 2,200 ft of turf, so plan your landing and takeoff distances with that surface in mind. This is a non-towered field. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway lighting is scheduled from sunset to 2300. Runway 36 has lighting on the first 600 ft on the west side only. The rest uses white reflectors. Runway 36 also has four white lights on three foot pedestals. There is an occasional minor depression near midfield. The runway width also varies from 61 ft at runway 36 to 125 ft at midfield.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need fuel or other services. One published note says a cataloged obstruction near runway 18 exceeds a 45 degree slope. That is worth a close look on your preflight and on final. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508.
