Central Wisconsin Airport (KCWA) sits in Mosinee, Wisconsin. The field elevation is 1,277.3 ft MSL. KCWA has two concrete runways. The longest is 08/26 at 7,724 ft. Runway 17/35 is 6,501 ft. The airport is towered. Tower hours are 0600 to 2200. Two ILS approaches are published. They are for runway ends 08 and 35.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. Ovation CWA is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. The airport sits in a busy commercial environment. There is a landing fee for aircraft providing commercial services. General aviation and cargo aircraft are restricted to less than 100,000 pounds. Taxiway E north of taxiway A is not available for aircraft rescue operations.
When the tower is closed, runway lighting changes are activated on CTAF. The runway 26 PAPI is unusable beyond 6 degrees right of centerline. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying in. Use the current Chart Supplement or call the airport operator if you need anything that is not covered here.
