Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston aircraft, use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard pattern reference unless ATC assigns otherwise. The field elevation is 655.4 ft MSL, so that puts a standard pattern near 1,655.4 ft MSL. The airport is tower controlled from 0600-2100. Expect ATC to sequence the pattern during those hours. No right-traffic exceptions are published in the facts. No runway-specific pattern notes are published.

Every end, one page

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