Chehalis-Centralia Airport sits in Chehalis, Washington. Field elevation is 177.2 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 16/34, at 5,000 ft. There is no control tower. Traffic uses CTAF 122.8. The published pattern is not listed in the facts, so assume the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Seattle approach is listed on 121.1 and 377.15 for radar services. The airport uses magnetic variation of 16°. The runway has medium intensity lights on the CTAF. Runway end identifier lights are installed on both ends. Runway 16 also has a PAPI. The published traffic pattern is to the west on all runway approaches. That matters here because the field also notes weekend glider activity in spring, summer and early fall. Wildlife on the runway is also a published concern.
The on-field FBO is Chehalis-Centralia Airport. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available 24 hours by credit card only. Debit cards are not accepted. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694 before departure if you need it.
