Rush City Regional Airport sits in Rush City, Minnesota. Field elevation is 926.4 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 16/34 is 4,401 ft of asphalt, so plan around a shorter regional strip rather than a big metro field. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

The lights are preset to low. Self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card.
