Mc Pherson Airport sits in Mc Pherson, Kansas. The field elevation is 1,498.3 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 18/36 at 5,503 ft. There is no control tower. Traffic uses CTAF 122.8. No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The on-field FBO is McPherson Airport Authority. It carries 100LL, Jet A Prist and mogas. 100LL is available by credit card. Jet A and mogas are available after hours by calling the manager. The airport also has AWOS on 119.025 with a published phone number. Phone service is available 24 hours.
For a first-time arrival, note the runway lighting on 18/36. The medium intensity lights are preset on low intensity. Use CTAF to increase intensity. Runway 08 and runway 26 are marked with yellow cones at the threshold and edge. Portions of the taxiways and tie down areas are a mix of concrete and asphalt. There are also construction cranes about 0.9 miles east southeast of the airport. Check your situational awareness on the approach. This matters in daylight when the cones and surface changes stand out.
