Punta Gorda Airport sits in Punta Gorda, Florida. Field elevation is 25.5 ft MSL. The airport has three asphalt runways. The longest is 7,193 ft on 04/22. The tower is open 0600-2100. One ILS approach is published for runway 04. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
PGD Air Center is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card service. The airport is busy enough that you should expect normal towered-field flow during the published tower hours. Runway 09/27 is limited to aircraft under 6,000 lb. It is also not available for certain Part 121 and Part 380 passenger operations. Runway 15 has a published approach slope note to the displaced threshold. Runway end identifier lights and PAPI are activated by CTAF on 04, 15, 22 and 33. High intensity lighting is on 04/22.
For a first-time arrival, the main things to brief are the towered environment, the single ILS on 04 and the runway mix. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying in. If you need clearance delivery and cannot raise flight service, use Fort Myers Approach or Miami ARTCC as published in the remarks.
