Commonwealth Health Center in Garapan, Northern Mariana Islands sits at 16 ft MSL. This is a medical helipad site, not a runway airport. No runways are listed. No control tower is published. CTAF is 125.7. No ILS approaches are published. The field is provided for VFR only.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if that fits the local operation. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go. The published remarks also call out obstacles near the pad. There are 110-foot hotel buildings west of the helipad. There is also an 85-foot water tank east of it. That matters for approach planning and hover work.

No on-field FBOs are listed. If you need current handling details, contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF before arrival. For a first-time pilot, the main point is simple. This is a helipad environment in a built-up area. Plan for visual conditions. Keep the obstacle picture in mind. Do not expect runway operations or instrument support.
