Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is 843 ft AGL, which is 1,999.3 ft MSL. There is no control tower, so traffic is self-announced and sequenced by pilots in the pattern. Use the published pattern altitude and stay alert for opposite-direction traffic on both runways. Runway 06/24 is the longer runway. Runway 06 has ILS published. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and aviationweather for live METAR/TAF before departure.

Every end, one page

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