Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local procedures say otherwise. That puts the pattern near 2,165 ft MSL based on the field elevation of 1,165 ft MSL. This airport is not towered, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. The only runway is 16/34. Expect normal left traffic unless local traffic or published procedures indicate otherwise. No right-traffic exception is published in the facts.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
