Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. KAIB is non-towered, so pilots self-announce and sequence themselves in the pattern. Runway 05/23 is the longer paved runway. Runway 11/29 is shorter and turf-dirt. Use the published magnetic runway directions when joining the pattern. No right-traffic exceptions are published. No runway-specific pattern notes are published.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
