Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston aircraft, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. With no control tower, self-announce and build your sequence early. Runway use will depend on wind, traffic and aircraft performance. Runway 17 is the only runway end with ILS, so that end may matter in lower ceilings or reduced visibility. No right-traffic exceptions are published. No special pattern notes are published in the facts.

Every end, one page

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