Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the standard pattern around 5,729 ft MSL. This is a busy training field. Expect high volume DA-20 traffic sunrise to sunset Monday through Friday. The remarks also call out intensive U.S. Air Force student training in the Colorado Springs and Pueblo area. Stay sharp in the pattern and on the taxiways.

After hours, call the FBO or use 100LL self-service. The airport sits at higher elevation, so performance planning matters. Conditions are not maintained from 2200 local to 0600 local. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying in.
