Northeast Wyoming Rgnl sits in Gillette, Wyoming. Field elevation is 4,365.1 ft MSL. The airport has two concrete runways. The longest is 16/34 at 7,501 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 118.5 and UNICOM is 122.95. Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 5,165.1 ft MSL.
One ILS approach is published for runway 34. The field is non-towered, so expect self-announce traffic and keep a close ear on CTAF. The airport is unmonitored. Birds are reported in the vicinity. Mining and blasting operations occur one-half mile north of the airport during daylight hours. Plan for that when you are working arrivals or departures. Unpaved surface operations are prohibited.
Thunder Basin Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. 100LL is available 24 hours a day via credit card. After hours operations use the published airport contact number. Runway lighting is worth a close look before night work. Runway 16/34 has high intensity lights. Runway 03/21 uses medium intensity lights controlled by CTAF. Runway 34 also has approach lighting with runway alignment indicator lights. If you are bringing a larger aircraft, note the published prior permission requirement for unscheduled operations with more than 30 passenger seats.
