Council Grove Muni (K63) sits in Council Grove, Kansas. The field elevation is 1,409 ft MSL. It has two turf runways. The longest is 1,845 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 2,409 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Call the airport operator or the field directly for current services before you go. The published remarks matter here. Runway 04 has a controlling obstruction that exceeds a 45 degree slope. There is also a 4-foot fence across the threshold of 04. Runway ends are marked with orange barrels. The runways are soft when wet. There is no line of sight between runway ends. Radio-controlled model aircraft activity occurs on weekends, evenings and holidays. Clearance delivery for IFR departures goes through Kansas City Center at 913-254-8508. A first-time pilot should plan for turf performance. Keep the runway condition in mind after rain. Brief the obstruction near 04 before arrival.
