Michigan City Muni-Phillips Fld sits in Michigan City, Indiana. Field elevation is 654.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 02/20 is 4,099 ft long with asphalt pavement. This is an untowered field, so standard CTAF self-announce procedures apply. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. If you are planning an instrument arrival, check the current Chart Supplement and the approach setup before you go. The field has self-serve fuel on site. Michigan City Municipal Airport carries AVGAS 100LL, UL94 and Jet A Prist. Self-service A+ fuel is also available with credit card. Runway lighting is pilot controlled on CTAF. REIL is available on runway 20. The published remarks also call out birds and deer in the area, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and final. There is also a reported obstacle note near runway 20. The approach slope at the displaced threshold of runway 20 is 20 to 1. The same 20 to 1 note is published for runway 02. For clearance delivery, contact South Bend Approach. If South Bend Approach is closed, use Chicago ARTCC. First-time arrivals should plan for an untowered environment, wildlife on the field and a short runway compared with larger regional airports.
