Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. At this non-towered field, pilots sequence themselves in the pattern and make position calls on CTAF. Runway 05/23 is the only runway, so traffic flow will center on that strip. No right-traffic exception is published. No special pattern notes are published in the facts. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flight.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
