Wilbur Wright Birthplace is in Hagerstown, Indiana. Field elevation is 1,140 ft MSL. The facts list 0 runways, so plan for helipad operations only and verify the current setup before you go. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL only as a local planning assumption for light piston traffic.

That matters here. The site also notes limited parking, so call ahead before you launch. The Preservation Center is the owner.
