Placerville Airport (KPVF) has 1 runway. Runway 05/23 is 3,914 ft long and 76 ft wide. The surface is asphalt. The longest runway is 3,914 ft, so there is no shorter alternate runway on the field. No ILS runway ends are published for KPVF.

This is a non-towered airport. The pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 3,385.8 ft MSL. Runway 05 has right traffic. Noise abatement is published for both runway use and departures. Pilots should avoid midfield departures. No turns west or north are allowed before 3,400 ft MSL or clear of the noise sensitive area. After takeoff from runway 23, make a 10 degree left turn at the end of the runway to avoid noise sensitive residential areas.

Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 3,385.8 ft MSL. KPVF is non-towered, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Runway 05 uses right traffic. That is the published exception. Use standard pattern discipline and keep the noise abatement notes in mind. No midfield departures are published. No turns west or north before 3,400 ft MSL or clear of the noise sensitive area. After takeoff from runway 23, make the published 10 degree left turn at the end of the runway.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
