John Murtha Johnstown/Cambria County Airport is in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Field elevation is 2,284.2 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 7,004 ft. The tower is open 0700-2300. An ILS is available for runway 33.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. For light piston traffic, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Nulton Aviation Services is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call the FBO directly for current service details.
A few published remarks matter here. Clearance delivery is handled through Johnstown Approach when it is open. When the tower is closed, runway 33 lighting and taxiway lights can be activated on CTAF. The PAPI for runway 05 is not available when the tower is closed. Deer and birds are reported on and near the airport. Taxiway B between runway 05/23 and taxiway B2 is limited to aircraft with wingspan 78 ft or less. Pilots should also note the airport sits at a fairly high field elevation. Performance planning matters, especially on warm days.
