Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. For light piston flying, use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard unless local procedures say otherwise. KLAM has no control tower, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Right traffic is published for Runway 27. No other pattern exceptions are published. The field elevation is 7,170.9 ft MSL, so density altitude can matter on warm days.

Every end, one page

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