Salem-Leckrone Airport sits in Salem, Illinois. The field elevation is 573.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 4,098 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.725. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. For this field that works out to about 1,573 ft MSL. Magnetic variation is 1°, so keep that in mind when you are briefing runway alignment.
Tate's Flying Service is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL. Self-serve 100LL is available with credit card. The published remarks also note that runway 18/36 lighting is preset to low intensity. Use CTAF to increase the lights and to activate the PAPI and runway end identifier lights. The PAPI on runway 36 is unusable more than 8 degrees left or right of centerline.
For a first-time arrival, the big things are simple. This is an uncontrolled field with one runway, so listen closely on CTAF and watch for local traffic. If you need clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. Check the current Chart Supplement for any updated lighting notes or other operational changes before you go.
