Lawrence Rgnl sits in Lawrence, Kansas. The field elevation is 833.2 ft MSL. It has 2 runways. The longest is 15/33 at 5,701 ft. There is no control tower, so use CTAF 123.0 for local traffic and monitor the pattern closely. The traffic pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
One ILS approach is published for runway 33. That matters if the weather comes down or if you are planning an instrument arrival. The airport has runway lighting on both runways. Runway 33 also has medium intensity approach lighting with runway alignment indicator lights. Runway end identifier lights are on 01, 15 and 19. Precision approach path indicators are on 01, 19, 15 and 33.
Hetrick Air Services is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. After hours fuel service is available by calling the number in the Chart Supplement. After hours, contact the airport manager if you need help on the field. For a first trip, pay attention to the untowered traffic flow and the published lighting setup. If you need current noise, curfew, or local operating details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
