Cook Airfield sits in Rose Hill, Kansas. Field elevation is 1,342 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 3,471 ft. Runway 01/19 is turf and 1,600 ft. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Wichita Approach handles the approach and departure frequencies. The remarks say to contact Wichita Approach for clearance delivery. Crosswinds Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and MOGAS. 100LL is self-service. Runway 17 has published obstacle and slope notes near the displaced threshold. There are also trees near the right side of the runway. That makes a careful stabilized approach important, especially if you are new to the strip.
Runway 17/35 has PAPI and medium intensity lights. The lights and beacon operate on 123.5. The field is a small non-towered airport with a mix of asphalt and turf. Expect local traffic on CTAF 122.8. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or operational changes before you go.
