Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless ATC assigns otherwise. At this tower-controlled airport, ATC sequences the pattern. Expect runway use to follow traffic flow and tower instructions.

Right-traffic exceptions are not published in the facts provided. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flight. Keep the tower frequency current and be ready for runway changes. The airport sits at 17.5 ft MSL, so pattern work will be close to the surface.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
