KSBM sits in Sheboygan, Wisconsin at 755.3 ft MSL. It is a non-towered field with two runways. The longest is 6,801 ft on 04/22. Runway 22 has the ILS. The pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Lake Breeze Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. 24-hour fuel is available with credit card. That is useful here because the airport also has ultralight activity in the area. Waterfowl and deer are noted on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on departure and on short final.

Lighting is worth planning for. MALSR is active on runway 22. REIL is on runway 04. PAPI on 04 and 22 is controlled by CTAF. Runway 13/31 lighting is preset low from sunset to sunrise. Use CTAF to increase intensity and activate it. Runway 31 is unusable beyond 4 degrees right of centerline. The field also has U.S. Customs and Border Protection prior permission required service Monday through Friday from 1100 to 1900. Check with the airport operator or the current FAA Chart Supplement before any international arrival.
