Salton Sea Airport sits at Salton City in California. Field elevation is -84 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 07/25 is 5,000 ft long and has a gravel surface. The field is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 716 ft MSL. No ILS approaches are published here.
For clearance delivery, contact Yuma Center Radar Approach Control at 928-269-9569. Loose gravel is reported near the parking area. Occasional ultralight activity happens on weekends, so keep your scan active in the pattern. The only runway markings noted are white threshold bars at both ends. That is useful to know if you are coming in here for the first time.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Plan on verifying services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival. The airport sits below sea level. The field elevation is unusual even though the runway is only 5,000 ft. Use the current chart and pay attention to the gravel surface, the weekend traffic mix and the published pattern altitude before you go.
