Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC assigns otherwise. This puts the pattern near 1,758.5 ft MSL based on the field elevation.

KDPA is tower controlled, so ATC sequences the pattern. Runway 02R has right traffic. No other right-traffic exceptions are published in the facts. Expect the tower to manage runway assignments and traffic flow on this busy multi-runway field.

Every end, one page

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