RWY 32

Pacific City State Airport (KPFC) sits in Pacific City, Oregon at 10 ft MSL. It has one runway, 14/32, which is 1,860 ft long on asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published. The field is low and coastal, so winter tides and flooding can matter here. The runway may be under water during winter high tides. Surface conditions are not reported.

The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. With a field elevation of 10 ft MSL, that puts the usual pattern reference at 1,010 ft MSL. The airport has no on-field FBOs listed. Pre-takeoff engine run-ups must be done at the parking ramp only. Expect close-in obstructions on both sides of the runway. Downwind landings are not recommended and may not be possible. The runway also has reported driftwood after flooding, plus soft and marshy areas off the pavement. Runway 14 has a displaced-threshold obstacle clearance slope and several close obstacles near the threshold. Runway 32 has trees near the end and a house off the right side. This is a short coastal strip, so plan conservatively and verify current conditions before you go.
