Bemidji Rgnl sits in Bemidji, Minnesota. Field elevation is 1,391.4 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 13/31 at 7,004 ft. There is no control tower, so expect CTAF traffic flow on 122.8. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Two ILS approaches are published for runway ends 25 and 31. That gives you an instrument option on both the east-west and north-south pavement. Bemidji Aviation Service is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Call ahead at (218) 751-1880 for current service status. High intensity runway lighting on 13/31 is preset low. Use CTAF to raise lighting levels and to activate the runway end identifier lights on 07/25. PAPI is listed for all runway ends.
This field is in northern Minnesota. Plan for winter ops, snow removal traffic and wildlife. Deer and birds are reported on and near the airport. Snow removal crews monitor CTAF during aircraft operations. Aircraft rescue and fire fighting crews also monitor CTAF. If you are bringing a large unscheduled flight with more than 30 passenger seats, the airport requires 48 hours prior permission. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any other local restrictions before you go.
