RWY 01L

Napa County Airport sits in Napa, California. Field elevation is 35.5 ft MSL. The airport has 3 runways. The longest is 5,930 ft on 01L/19R. The control tower is open 0700-2000. One ILS is published for runway 01L. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a low-elevation field near wetlands. Bird activity is a real factor here, especially in rainy weather. There is also an unlighted bridge about 1 NM south that sits 167 ft AGL, so keep that in mind on departure and arrival. When the tower is closed, runway lighting can be activated by CTAF. The published remarks also note that PAPI on 19R operates continuously.

Atlantic Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Skyservice is also on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. If you need fuel after hours, the published remarks say to call Atlantic Aviation at 707-224-0887 for service from 2100 to 0600. For clearance delivery when the tower is closed, contact Oakland ARTCC. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or operating restrictions before you go.
