The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light-piston pattern at about 2,015.6 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The on-field FBO is Lancaster Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL. Twenty-four hour self-service fuel is available with credit card. Call the airport at (608) 723-7543 if you need current ramp or fuel details.
A first-time pilot should watch for occasional vehicles and people crossing the runway to reach the hangar area on the east side. That makes a good traffic scan important on every leg. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. The airport manager email is listed in the Chart Supplement if you need local coordination before arrival.
