Traffic pattern
Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston aircraft, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. The airport is non-towered, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Runway 17/35 is the only runway, so pattern work will center on that strip. The published notes also say the airport is noise sensitive in all quadrants. Keep turns tight when practical and fly the published or local noise-abatement flow if briefed by the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone.
Every end, one page
Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
