GNOSS FLD is in Novato, California. The field elevation is 4 ft MSL. It has one runway, 13/31, which is 3,303 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.075. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go. SkyShare is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. For clearance delivery, Oakland ARTCC is listed in the remarks. The airport manager is Dan Jensen.
The published remarks matter here. Runway 13 is the calm wind runway. Jet and turbine aircraft land on 13 and depart 31 as wind and traffic permit. There is a noise sensitive area southeast of the airport. Avoid straight-out departures on 13. Avoid straight-in landings on 31. Mountains are west of the airport. Hills are south of the field. Ditches also surround the runway. Helicopters approach from the east and depart to the east. They stay north of the radio towers. For a first-time arrival, brief the runway overrun lengths and the terrain around the field before you launch.
