For after-hours service or hangar questions, the published contact number is 402-841-5130. The airport remarks also note that runway 20 is the calm wind runway. All runways use left-hand traffic only.

A first-time pilot should pay attention to the displaced threshold clearance notes on runway 14 and runway 32. The published remarks also mention a railroad near the runway 14 threshold area and a tree near the runway 32 threshold area. If you need clearance delivery and cannot reach flight service, the Chart Supplement says to contact Minneapolis ARTCC. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before departure for any updates to procedures or remarks.
