Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. KSAD has no control tower, so pilots self-announce and sequence in the pattern. No right-traffic exceptions are published in the facts. No runway-specific pattern notes are published. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flight for any local traffic flow changes. The airport sits at 3,178.4 ft MSL, so density altitude can matter on warm days.

Every end, one page

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