To increase intensity and activate the medium intensity approach lighting system with runway alignment indicator lights for runway 36, use the common traffic advisory frequency. Runway end identifier lights are on runway 18. Precision approach path indicators are on runways 18 and 36. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 09/27 and controlled by the common traffic advisory frequency.Show FAA

Fond du Lac County Airport sits in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 808.6 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 18/36 at 5,941 ft. There is no control tower, so expect non-towered traffic flow on CTAF 123.05. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
One ILS approach is published for runway 36. That makes the field useful when the weather drops. You still need to brief the local procedures before arrival. Fond Du Lac Skyport is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call (920) 922-6000 for current service or after-hours help.
A few remarks matter here. There is a building close to the departure end of runway 18. The published obstacle note says it exceeds a 45 degree slope. Runway 18/36 lighting is preset low from sunset to sunrise. Use CTAF to increase intensity and to activate the medium intensity approach lighting system for runway 36. Runway end identifier lights are on runway 18. If you are new to the area, keep the Milwaukee approach frequencies handy for IFR coordination. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
