RWY 33

Davenport Muni sits in Davenport, Iowa. Field elevation is 750.5 ft MSL. The airport has 2 concrete runways. The longest is 5,511 ft on runway 15/33. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Runway 15 has an ILS approach. That is the only published ILS here. The field has a calm wind runway of 15. Runway 15/33 is the longer runway, so it is the one to think about first when wind and performance matter. Runway lighting is pilot controlled on CTAF from dusk to dawn. The airport also has visual approach slope indicators on both runways. Helicopter traffic can be active on CTAF from grass areas. The published remarks also call out heavy Chinook training in and near the airport. Expect possible rotor turbulence. Wildlife is also a known caution here.

Jet Air, Inc. is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Self-serve 100LL is available on the east end of taxiway C. Full-service Jet A and 100LL are available on the main ramp in front of the terminal. For a first visit, pay close attention to the CTAF traffic picture and the helicopter activity. Two-way radio communications are required for aircraft conducting multiple operations.
