RWY 25

DAVIS (6S4) sits in Gates, Oregon. The field elevation is 1,028 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 07/25 is 1,940 ft of turf, which makes this a short-field stop for light aircraft. The runway ends are not marked, so a careful visual setup matters on arrival and departure.

There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan with the current chart and your own VFR or non-precision setup as needed. The published pattern altitude is not listed. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 2,028 ft MSL based on the field elevation.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go if you need fuel or services. One published remark to keep in mind is the model aircraft flying area about 300 feet south of the runway. Another is that clearance delivery is handled through Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. This field also existed before 1959, which tells you it has a long local history. The operational details that matter are the turf surface, short length and the unmarked runway ends.
