Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field is in a busy coastal metro area. Birds are reported year round. That matters on departure and in the pattern. There is also unmanned aircraft activity 3 miles west of the airport during daylight hours at or below 400 ft AGL. Cabaniss Field 5 miles southeast may be mistaken for Corpus Christi International. Cuddihy Field is a closed airport 4 miles south that can also cause confusion.

Aircraft at terminal gates next to ground control must contact ground control before pushback. If you are headed to the Coast Guard ramp, plan ahead. Published remarks call for prior permission.
