Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published for KAXH. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local procedures say otherwise. There is no control tower, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. The airport has one runway only, 09/27. That keeps pattern work simple, but it also means you need to watch for opposite-direction traffic on the same strip. No right-traffic exception is 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.
