Marquette/Sawyer Rgnl is in Marquette, Michigan. The field elevation is 1,204.5 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 9,072 ft long. The tower is open from 0600 to 2200. An ILS is published for runway 01. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Kubick Aviation Services is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A Prist. The published remarks also note that GA and charter parking is at the general aviation terminal in the southeast corner of the airport. The south half of the aircraft terminal ramp is not plowed from October through April. Snow removal is frequent in that season. Expect changing surface conditions. Birds and deer are reported on and near the airport.
For a first-time arrival, the big items are the towered environment, winter ops and the runway setup. When the tower is closed, clearance delivery goes through the remote communications outlet if available. If not, contact Minneapolis ARTCC. The airport also notes that runway 01 uses the approach lighting system with runway alignment indicator lights. Runway 19 has REILs and PAPI. Check the current Chart Supplement for any additional operational restrictions before you go.
