Emmetsburg Muni sits in Emmetsburg, Iowa. The field elevation is 1,206.1 ft MSL. It has one runway, 13/31, at 3,401 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan for non-precision or visual work based on current conditions.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Emmetsburg Municipal Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL. Call (712) 852-3810 for current service details before you go.
Runway lighting is pilot-activated. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 13/31. Runway end identifier lights and PAPI are also activated on runways 13 and 31 by CTAF. That makes night arrivals more workable. You still need to brief the lighting setup before descent. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. If you are flying IFR or need current local procedures, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before departure.
