RWY 33

Meadow Lake Airport (KFLY) sits in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Field elevation is 6,878.1 ft MSL. The airport has three runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 6,001 ft. It is asphalt. Runway 16/34 is 5,001 ft turf. Runway 08/26 is 2,126 ft asphalt-gravel.

There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. No ILS approaches are published. For clearance delivery, contact Colorado Springs Approach at 719-556-9105.

Phantom Fuel is on the field. It carries 100LL. Self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. Runway 15/33 has runway end identifier lights. Its medium intensity lights increase on CTAF. Precision approach path indicators on 15 and 33 are on continuously.

First-time pilots should pay attention to the elevation. Performance will be different here than at lower fields. Watch for gliders on runway 16/34 and the west side of the airport. Also watch for powered paragliders and mobile aerostats on the southeast side up to 500 ft. Wildlife is reported on and near the airport. Runway 26 also has a fence near the threshold area and terrain close to the edge in the first 100 ft on both sides.
