Pawnee Muni is in Pawnee, Oklahoma. The field elevation is 875 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 2,133 ft of turf. The airport is non-towered. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 1,875 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Verify before you fly. The published remarks matter here. The south 300 ft of runway 18/36 can get muddy and soft when wet. There is also a 41 ft tree 75 ft left of centerline near the departure end for runway 18.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. For airport attendant help, call the police department. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City Air Route Traffic Control Center. The airport manager is the mayor. Pilots should plan for turf performance, wet-field braking and the obstacle near runway 18. Check the current Chart Supplement and call the airport operator if you need current field condition or operating details.
