Mount Pleasant Muni sits in Mount Pleasant, Iowa. The field elevation is 730.6 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 15/33 at 4,001 ft of concrete. The other runway is 03/21 at 1,967 ft of turf. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.05.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Air Advantage is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call them at (319) 385-8122 before arrival if you need current service details.
A few published remarks matter here. Runway end identifier lights on 15 and 33 work only when the medium intensity runway lights are on. The runway lights on 15 and 33 are controlled from CTAF. The turf runway 03/21 has its corners and edges marked by yellow cones. If you plan a night arrival, the segmented circle needs floodlighting. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC. Pilots should also check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any operational notes before flying in.
