Grand Junction Rgnl sits in Grand Junction, Colorado. The field elevation is 4,861.4 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 11/29 at 9,339 ft. Runway 04/22 is 5,501 ft. The tower is open daily from 0600 to 2200.
Two ILS approaches are published. They serve runway ends 11 and 29. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. West Star Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. The airport also notes liquid oxygen service, liquid nitrogen and de-ice fluid availability.
This is a busy high-desert airport with noise abatement procedures in effect. Check with airport management for the current details before you go. Birds are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on departure and arrival. Runway 04/22 is closed from 2200 to 0600. When the tower is closed, lighting is still available on the published systems. Taxiway C1A and taxiway C are not visible from the tower near their intersection, so stay alert when taxiing there. If you need after-hours fuel, call ahead. If you need clearance delivery after the tower closes, contact Grand Junction Approach first.
