Eagle County Rgnl sits in Eagle, Colorado. The field elevation is 6,547.4 ft MSL. It has one runway, 07/25, which is 9,000 ft long. The airport is towered. Tower hours are 0700-1900 HRS. Two ILS approaches are published. Runway 25X also exists to support the VAZ LDA/DME associated with runway 25.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. Signature Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. The airport is in mountain terrain. High unmarked terrain surrounds the field in all quadrants. Night operations are discouraged for pilots who are not familiar with the airport.
There are a few operational items to plan around. Extensive military helicopter training occurs within 25 NM from the surface to 1,000 ft AGL between 0630 and 2200. Runway 25 departures are recommended to start a left turn as soon as altitude and safety permit to stay clear of terrain. The field is also a cold temperature airport. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 19 C. For tower hours and clearance issues, use the published airport contacts in the Chart Supplement or call the airport directly.
