Imperial County (KIPL) has 2 runways. The longest is runway 14/32 at 5,308 ft by 100 ft, with an ASPH surface. Runway 08/26 is 4,501 ft by 75 ft, also ASPH. No ILS runway ends are published. The field elevation is -53.6 ft MSL.
This is an uncontrolled field. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. Runway 26 has right traffic. Runway 32 has right traffic. Noise abatement procedures apply on the northeast edge of the airport near schools and residential areas. Helicopter arrivals should use runway 32 when conditions permit. Helicopter departures should use runway 14 when conditions permit. Training and autorotation work has runway-specific limits, so review the airport notes before you fly.

Traffic pattern
Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. KIPL has no control tower, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Runway 26 uses right traffic. Runway 32 uses right traffic.
Noise-sensitive areas sit on the northeast edge of the airport near schools and residential areas. Helicopter training patterns and autorotations use runway 08/26 with a maximum of three circuits. Between sunset and sunrise, avoid consecutive pattern circuits. Check the airport notes before planning pattern work.
Every end, one page
Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
