OSAGE CITY MUNI sits in Osage City, Kansas. Field elevation is 1,105.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 2,539 ft of asphalt, so plan for a short-field setup if you are bringing in anything larger than a light piston. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. With the field sitting above 1,100 ft MSL, density altitude can matter on warm days. That is worth keeping in mind on a short runway.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current service availability. Published remarks call out severe cracking along runway 17/35. They also note roads close to both runway ends and trees near the 17 approach path. Runway end lighting is red. Displaced threshold lights are green. PAJA activity occurs on Saturday and Sunday. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go for any updated operational notes or restrictions.
