Sparta/Fort McCoy Airport sits in Sparta, Wisconsin. The field elevation is 839.4 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 11/29 at 4,697 ft. The other runway is 01/19 at 3,032 ft. The tower is open 1400-2200Z Monday through Friday except federal holidays. No ILS approaches are published, so plan for nonprecision or visual work only. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The on-field FBO is Sparta/Fort McCoy Airport. It carries 100LL. Call (608) 269-4340 before you go if you need current service details. Published remarks matter here. Heavy assault strip operations east of the field call for nonstandard north lateral clearance on runway 11/29. Birds and wildlife are also reported on and near the airport. Terrain rises quickly one nautical mile northwest through northeast. Runway 01, 11 and 29 have nonstandard safety areas beyond each end because of terrain and fencing. When the tower is closed, runway lighting is activated on CTAF. That includes REIL on 11 and 29. It also includes medium intensity lights on 01 and 19. For a first visit, brief the terrain, the lighting setup and the runway 11 departure caution before you taxi.
