Arnold Palmer Rgnl is in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. The field elevation is 1,198.7 ft MSL. KLBE has one runway, 06/24, which is 8,222 ft long. The tower is open daily from 0615 to 2200. One ILS approach is published for runway 24.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport sits in western Pennsylvania terrain. Plan for local weather and performance changes on warm days. Deer and birds are reported on and near the airport. That matters here.
On the field, L.J. Aviation carries Jet A and Jet A Prist. Laurel Highlands Jet Center carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. If you need current ramp, fuel, or parking details, call the FBO directly before arrival. When the tower is closed, clearance delivery goes through Johnstown Approach. When approach is closed, contact Cleveland ARTCC. Runway 24 PAPI is unusable beyond 8 degrees right of centerline. For larger unscheduled arrivals with more than 9 passengers, prior permission is required. Check with the airport manager before you go if that applies.
