Phoenix Sky Harbor Intl sits in Phoenix, Arizona. Field elevation is 1,134.8 ft MSL. The airport has 3 runways. The longest is 11,489 ft. Tower service is 24 hours. Five ILS approaches are published, with runway ends 07L, 07R, 08, 25L and 26 served. 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.
This is a busy Class B airport with heavy airline and business traffic. Noise abatement procedures are in effect. Plan ahead for that if you are arriving in a piston airplane. Several taxiways have wingspan limits or closures. Taxiway visibility from the tower is also limited in some spots, so read back taxi instructions carefully. Expect follow-me service when required. International gate use needs airport operations coordination 48 hours before arrival.
Jackson Jet Center is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Cutter Aviation is also on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A Prist. Overnight parking fees apply. Fees also apply for charters, travel club and revenue producing aircraft. For any current operational detail that matters to your flight, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator or FBO directly by phone.
