Inyokern Airport (KIYK) sits in Inyokern, California at 2,457 ft MSL. It has three asphalt runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 7,100 ft. This is an untowered field, so use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic and UNICOM. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 3,457 ft MSL for light piston operations if you are flying the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern.
No ILS approaches are published here. The airport uses JOSHUA approach and departure frequencies on 133.65 and 348.7. Runway 02/20 has medium intensity lights. It also has a VASI on 20 and a PAPI on 02. Runways 10/28 and 15/33 also have medium intensity lights. The field has an on-site FBO, Inyokern Airport, which carries 100LL and Jet A. Call ahead if you need fuel after 1600. A callout fee applies for 100LL service after that time.
This is a high-desert airport with a 14° magnetic variation. Expect density altitude to matter on warm days. Frequent glider operations occur on weekends. Runway 15/33 has reported block cracking in places. Runway 10/28 is described as poor but stable. Some centerline marking is obscured by crack filler.
