RWY 02

Dodge City Rgnl sits in Dodge City, Kansas. Field elevation is 2,595.5 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 6,899 ft on runway 14/32. This is a non-towered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use standard traffic pattern planning for light piston unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

There is 1 ILS approach. It serves runway 14. That matters here because the field also has runway lighting from dusk to dawn. Runway 14 has malfunctioning approach lighting system with runway alignment indicator lights. Runway 32 has runway end identifier lights. PAPI is on runways 02 and 20. VASI is on runways 14 and 32. Crotts Aircraft Service is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call ahead at (620) 227-3553 for current availability and ramp details.

A few operational notes matter for a first-time arrival. Runway 02/20 has weight and tire limits. It is not available for some Part 121 and Part 380 passenger operations. Taxiway B, taxiway B1 and parts of the south apron area are unusable by aircraft. Runway ends 02 and 20 are not visible from opposite ends. If you need clearance delivery help, the published remarks point pilots to Kansas City ARTCC when Flight Service cannot be reached. Check the current Chart Supplement for any airport-specific restrictions before you go.
