Lawrence J Timmerman Airport sits in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 744.8 ft MSL. The airport has 4 runways. The longest is runway 15L/33R at 4,107 ft. It is a towered field. Tower hours are 0700-2100. One ILS approach is published for runway 15L.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Spring City Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call them at (414) 461-3222 for current service details. Published remarks matter here. Turf runways 04R/22L and 15R/33L, plus turf taxiways, are closed from October 15 to May 1. White cones mark several turf runway ends. Birds are reported on and near the airport. Do not confuse taxiways B and C with landing or takeoff surfaces.
This is a busy Milwaukee-area airport with mixed asphalt and turf surfaces. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or operational restrictions before you go. Also note that conditions are unmonitored during certain off-hours and on weekends or holidays. If you are arriving when the tower is closed, review the lighting notes before departure so you know how to activate the runway lights and approach lighting from CTAF.
