Ann Arbor Muni sits in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The field elevation is 839 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 06/24 at 3,505 ft on concrete. Runway 12/30 is turf at 2,750 ft. The tower is open 0800-2000. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Two on-field FBOs are listed. Solo Aviation carries 100LL and Jet A. ACE Aviation Center also carries 100LL and Jet A. If you are planning a stop, call ahead for current ramp details and service status.
A few operational points matter here. When the tower is closed, runway lighting is activated on CTAF. The published remarks also note deer and large birds in the area. Runway 12 has yellow cones near it. Runway 24 uses the first 200 ft of taxiway A as the runup area. Taxiway A1 between taxiway A and the runway 24 hold line is not visible from the tower. There is no snow removal for runway 12/30. If you are arriving in winter, confirm conditions on CTAF before you go. For clearance delivery after tower hours, contact Detroit Approach directly.
