RWY 26

Eastern Oregon Rgnl at Pendleton sits in Pendleton, Oregon at 1,494 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 08/26 at 6,301 ft. The field is towered from 0600 to 2000. One ILS is published for runway 26. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Wildhorse Aviation Fueling is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call ahead if you need current ramp details or after-hours help. Published remarks also note frequent UAS activity in and near the controlled airspace. Deer have been reported on and near the apron, especially in the morning and evening in August. Taxiway B is closed south of Taxiway A. Runway end 11 and runway end 29 are out of service. Check the current airport status before you plan a landing or departure.

This is a controlled airport with a busy mix of local traffic, instrument arrivals and unmanned aircraft activity. The tower view is partly blocked near the ramp and runway 29 by the terminal building. If you are arriving after tower hours, use CTAF. Review the current Chart Supplement for lighting and any operational notes before you go.
