Bult Fld is in Monee, Illinois. The field elevation is 790.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 09/27, which is 5,001 ft long and paved with concrete. This is a non-towered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published here.
The published pattern altitude is not listed, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern around 1,790.2 ft MSL. The on-field FBO is Bult Field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. Jet A is available after hours with prior arrangement.
A few operational notes matter here. Runway 09 has an 8-foot road 156 feet from the runway end on centerline. Runway 27 has a 12-foot road 141 feet from the runway end on centerline. Birds and animals are reported on and near the airport. Calm wind favors the runway noted in the remarks. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. This is a good field to brief carefully before arrival, especially if you are planning a night stop or a fuel stop in changing wind conditions.
