RWY 27

Albany Airport (54W) sits in Albany, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 820 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is turf and measures 1,675 ft, which is also the longest runway on the field. This is a VFR-only airport. No control tower is published. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field is small and the runway is short. Plan your performance with that in mind, especially if the surface is soft or wet. Published remarks also note deer and birds in the area. That matters on takeoff and landing, especially at low altitude and in the pattern.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. If you need fuel or local services, contact the airport operator or call ahead before you go. For clearance delivery, Chicago ARTCC is listed at 630-906-8921. Winter runway conditions are handled through the airport manager at 608-438-0017. If you are checking in from a larger airport, expect a quiet turf strip with basic VFR operations and no published instrument approach support.
