Joliet Regional Airport sits in Joliet, Illinois. Field elevation is 582.3 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 13/31 at 2,821 ft. It is a non-towered field, so expect self-announce traffic on CTAF 122.7. Watch the pattern closely.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless current local guidance says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Joliet Regional Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL, Jet A and mogas. Call (815) 741-7267 before arrival if you need current ramp or fuel availability.
There are a few items a first-time pilot should know. Runway 13/31 has medium intensity lights that are preset low. Use the PAPI on runway 13 to increase intensity. Runway 04/22 is marked with tires painted white. Its threshold is marked with white gravel. Runway 13/31 markings are faded. There is also an obstruction note for the approach to runway 13. A 51-foot tree sits near the displaced threshold area. The airport existed before 1959. If you need clearance delivery, Chicago Approach publishes a phone number in the Chart Supplement. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
