RWY 31

Oskaloosa Muni sits in Oskaloosa, Iowa. Field elevation is 840.2 ft MSL. The airport has two concrete runways. The longest is runway 13/31 at 4,012 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

For pattern work, the published pattern altitude is not listed. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement or local traffic calls for something different. That puts you near 1,840 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Runway 13/31 has medium intensity lights. The runway end identifier lights on 13/31 are controlled by CTAF. That matters if you are arriving after dark.

Classic Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. The airport remarks also say to contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921 for clearance delivery. The airport attendance schedule phone number is the same as Classic Aviation. If you are planning a first visit, brief the lighting setup, confirm the active runway on CTAF, then expect a non-towered environment with local traffic on 122.8.
