RWY 27

Rhinelander/Oneida County Airport sits in Rhinelander, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 1,623.3 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 6,800 ft. Runway 15/33 is 5,201 ft. There is no control tower, so expect CTAF and UNICOM self-announce traffic on 123.0.

The field has one ILS approach. It serves runway 09. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless current airport information says otherwise. Rhinelander Flying Service is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Self-serve fuel is available 24 hours a day for both 100LL and Jet A.

A few operational notes matter here. Birds and coyotes are reported on and near the airport. Surface conditions are not monitored between 0000 and 0500 hours. Runway lighting is CTAF-controlled on both runways. Runway 09 also has medium-intensity approach lighting with runway alignment indicator lights. If you are bringing in an unscheduled aircraft with more than 9 passenger seats, prior permission is required. For clearance delivery when Flight Service is not available, Minneapolis ARTCC is listed as the contact. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before departure for any updates.
