RWY 25

Greenfield Muni sits in Greenfield, Iowa. The field elevation is 1,363.6 ft MSL. It has two concrete runways. The longest is 3,400 ft on runway 07/25. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at about 2,363.6 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The on-field FBO is Greenfield Municipal Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL.

A few remarks matter for planning. Runway 25 is listed as the calm wind runway. Runway 07/25 lights are activated on CTAF. They start at low intensity. Use the CTAF frequency to increase intensity. There is also a phone on the airport. Clearance delivery goes through Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. Watch the departure end of runway 32. There is an 18-foot hangar 50 ft from the end of the runway. It sits 250 ft right of centerline. For a first visit, the main things are the non-towered setup, the lack of ILS and the high field elevation for a small Iowa airport. Check density altitude and performance before you go.
