Newark Liberty Intl is in Newark, New Jersey. The field elevation is 17.5 ft MSL. KEWR has 3 runways. The longest is 11,000 ft on 04L/22R. The airport is towered. The control tower is open 24 hours. Five ILS approaches are published for runway ends 04L, 04R, 11, 22L and 22R.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement before you fly. The airport sits in the New York metro area. Expect a busy Class B environment. Plan for close ATC coordination. The published remarks also matter. Taxiway limits apply to aircraft with wingspans over 171 feet. There is also an EMAS bed at a runway departure end. Runway 04R has a nearby pole off the end. Review the current chart and taxi instructions carefully.
Signature Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. If you are new to KEWR, get the latest airport notes from the current FAA Chart Supplement. Be ready for heavy traffic flow and tight ground handling. This is not a place to guess at pattern work or taxi routing.
