Tri-Township Airport sits in Savanna, Illinois. Field elevation is 616.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 13/31, which is 4,001 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so a light piston pilot should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The on-field FBO is Tri-Township Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL and MOGAS. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. Departure and approach support is handled by Quad City on 125.95 and 257.8. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921.
There are a few operational details worth having in mind before you go. PAPI and taxiway lights are activated on CTAF. The runway lights on 13/31 are preset to low intensity. The PAPI is unusable beyond 8 degrees right of centerline on runway 13. On runway 31 it is unusable beyond 7 degrees left and 9 degrees right of centerline. The published remarks also note obstacle clearance near the threshold and seasonal irrigation sprinkler equipment under runway 31. Check the current Chart Supplement for any changes before flying in.
