Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless ATC or local procedures say otherwise. There is no control tower, so traffic self-announces and self-sequences. Keep a close scan for other aircraft in the pattern and on final. No right-traffic exceptions are published. No special pattern notes are published in the facts. Verify current traffic flow and winds before departure with aviationweather and the current FAA Chart Supplement.

Every end, one page
