Bangor Intl is in Bangor, Maine. The field elevation is 192.1 ft MSL. It has one runway, 15/33, which is 11,440 ft long and grooved. The tower is open 24 hours. Two ILS approaches are published, one for each runway end. The pattern altitude is not published for the field. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC says otherwise.
Bangor Aviation Services is the on-field FBO. It carries AVGAS 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call ahead if you need ramp or service details. The airport also supports military activity. Air National Guard operations run weekdays from 1100 to 1930 Zulu. Range operations run weekdays from 1230 to 2100 Zulu except holidays. Expect extra traffic and bird activity during the published BASH periods in spring and fall. Runway 33 uses left traffic. Turbojet traffic is at 2,000 ft MSL unless instructed otherwise.
For a first-time arrival, the big items are the long runway, the mixed civilian and military use and the need to stay sharp on coordination. Prior permission is required for some Air National Guard ramp access and transient use. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any current restrictions before you go. The field sits in a coastal Maine environment. Expect weather and wind changes to matter on arrival.
