HARRY S TRUMAN DAM & RESERVOIR sits near Warsaw, Missouri. Field elevation is 706 ft MSL. No runways are listed here. This is a seaplane base, so plan for water operations rather than a paved strip. No ILS approaches are published. CTAF is 122.9.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator gives you something different. The published remarks matter here. There are no buoys marking landing areas. Landings are allowed only in designated areas. Keep 1,000 feet clear of the dam or any bridge. Trees and high ground sit in all quadrants. That makes the site a poor place to improvise a low recon pass.

For clearance, contact Whiteman Approach at 660-687-3132. When Whiteman Approach is closed, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. The seaplane base sits under the Truman C Military Operations Area base at 500 feet AGL. Contact Whiteman Approach on 127.45 for that operation. Call ahead for marina information. Check ice conditions in winter. Watch for debris on and near the lake during flood periods.
