No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. For this field, that works out to about 1,246 ft MSL based on the listed elevation.
Anacortes Airport has one on-field FBO, Anacortes Airport. It carries 100LL. Call (360) 293-3134 before arrival if you need current service details. Published remarks say noise abatement procedures are in effect. They also note a military arrival corridor north and west of the airport. No touch-and-go landings are permitted. Runway 36 is the preferred calm wind runway. Medium intensity runway lights and runway end identifier lights on 18/36 are activated by CTAF. Deer and coyote are near the movement areas, so keep a sharp scan on taxi and rollout. Pilots must bring their own tiedowns.
