Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. At KDKX there is no control tower, so pilots handle their own spacing and pattern entry. Runway 08/26 is the only runway, so traffic flow centers on that strip. Keep the published noise note in mind near runway 26. Departures should avoid the neighborhood southwest of the runway. Use normal self-announce discipline and watch for mixed traffic.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
