RWY 27

Prentice Airport sits in Prentice, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 1,578.5 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 3,134 ft long with asphalt pavement. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. The published remarks matter here. Runway 09 has displaced threshold protection based on a 20 to 1 clearance surface. There is also a railroad near the runway end on the 09 side. A small sign is also noted near that end. Medium intensity runway lights are available on 09/27. Taxiway lights are activated by using the common traffic advisory frequency.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Plan on checking with the airport operator or the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go. For clearance delivery, Minneapolis ARTCC is the published contact. This is a non-towered field with a single short asphalt runway at a higher field elevation, so performance planning matters. Watch density altitude on warm days. The runway environment on the 09 end deserves a close look before you commit.
