Zelmer Meml Airpark Inc (5K1) is in Palmyra, Illinois. Field elevation is 663 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. The longest runway is 2,900 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. 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 for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway has low-intensity lights that are activated by CTAF. The displaced threshold on runway 36 is marked, so brief the landing distance carefully before you go in.
Published remarks also note a 13-foot road near the runway end on 36. That is worth a close look on arrival and departure. The runway markings are nonstandard with small numbers. For clearance delivery, contact St Louis Approach at 314-890-1017. There is no on-field FBO listed in the facts, so confirm fuel and services with the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival. If you need an attendant, the published number is 217-741-0619. This is a small uncontrolled field. Expect self-announce traffic and plan your spacing early.
