Field elevation is 743.9 ft MSL, so that puts a nominal pattern near 1,744 ft MSL. The airport is tower-controlled. Expect ATC sequencing in the pattern. Published notes also include nighttime noise abatement from 2300 to 0700. Runway use guidance in the notes favors departures on 23L and 23R with winds 10 knots or less. It also favors arrivals on 05L and 05R with winds 10 knots or less.

Every end, one page

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