Buchanan Field Airport sits in Concord, California. The field elevation is 25.6 ft MSL. It has 4 runways. The longest is 5,001 ft. The tower is open daily from 0700 to 2200. There is 1 ILS approach to runway 19R.
For pattern work, the published pattern altitude is not listed. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport is busy and noise sensitive. Published noise abatement procedures are in effect. Check the current Chart Supplement and call the airport manager before arrival if you need the latest details.
Pacific States Aviation is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL, JET A, JET A PRIST and UL94. Concord Jet Center is also on the field. It carries JET A and JET A PRIST. When the tower is closed, runways 14L/32R, 14R/32L and 01R/19L are closed. Birds are a factor here, especially from November through March and after rain. There is also a light obstruction near runway 14R. If you are flying a larger aircraft, note that the airport has runway use limits for some passenger-carrying operations. Confirm those details with the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator before you go.
