Fitchburg Muni (KFIT) has 1 runway. Runway 14/32 is 5,001 ft long and 100 ft wide. It is asphalt. The longest runway is 5,001 ft, which is also the shortest runway here. No ILS runway ends are published. The field elevation is 344.5 ft MSL.

This is an uncontrolled field. There is no control tower. The published noise abatement note matters for departure planning. Departing aircraft must climb to traffic pattern altitude before turning crosswind. That makes the initial climb and turn timing important. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flight for the latest published runway data and airport notes.

Traffic pattern

The pattern altitude is 1,002 ft AGL. That is 1,346.5 ft MSL. KFIT has no control tower, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. The published note calls out a noise sensitive area. Departing aircraft must climb to traffic pattern altitude before turning crosswind. Use that in your departure scan and climb profile. No right-traffic exception is published in the facts provided. No special runway-specific pattern note is published beyond the noise abatement item.

Every end, one page

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