Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless ATC assigns otherwise. The airport has a control tower, so ATC sequences the pattern during tower hours. Runway 02/20 and runway 11/29 are both asphalt. Noise abatement matters here. Avoid populated areas to the south and west. Use the river for approach and departure when possible. Check the Brainard tower letters to airmen for local pattern guidance.

Every end, one page

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