KMIA is Miami Intl in Miami, Florida. The field elevation is 9.3 ft MSL. It has four runways. The longest is 13,016 ft. The tower is open 24 hours. Eight ILS approaches are published. The listed runway ends are 08L, 08R, 09, 12, 26L, 26R, 27 and 30. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Signature Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call the FBO directly at (305) 874-1477 for current services. Airport operations can be reached at 305-876-7550. This is a busy Class B environment. Expect heavy airline traffic. Expect tight sequencing. Expect close attention to taxi instructions. The published remarks also note a closure on runway 08L/26R from 0300 to 1200. It can extend beyond that when 08R/26L and 09/27 are in use. That matters for planning. There is also a displaced-threshold obstruction note for runway 09 and runway 30. If you are bringing a large aircraft, review the wingspan limits and ramp restrictions before you go. First-time arrivals should brief the current Chart Supplement and be ready for complex ground movement at a major airline airport.
