Columbia Rgnl sits in Columbia, Missouri. Field elevation is 889.4 ft MSL. The airport has 2 concrete runways. The longest is 7,401 ft on runway 02/20. The tower is open 0700-2100. One ILS is published for runway 02. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Columbia Jet Center is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. For a first-time arrival, the big things are the towered environment, the long primary runway and the published lighting setup for after-hours operations. When the tower is closed, runway 02/20 lighting and the approach lighting system are activated on CTAF. Runway 20 is noted as operating continuously. The field also has Mizzou Approach frequencies for clearance and approach or departure work. If you are bringing a larger aircraft, note the published prior permission requirement for unscheduled operations with more than 30 passenger seats. Check with the airport operator or the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
