Sarasota/Bradenton Intl sits in Sarasota and Bradenton, Florida. Field elevation is 29.9 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 14/32 at 9,500 ft. Runway 04/22 is 5,006 ft. The tower is open 0600 to 0000. When the tower is closed, use CTAF 120.1. Follow the published lighting setup for the field.
ILS approaches are available to runway 14 and runway 32. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use standard light piston pattern altitude of 1,000 ft AGL unless ATC gives different instructions. That puts you near 1,030 ft MSL at this field. Airspace is Class C from 700 to 0100. Outside those hours the field is Class G. Class E starts at 700 ft AGL and above. That matters here because the airport sits in a busy coastal metro area with a lot of mixed traffic.
On the field, Atlantic Aviation, Ascension FBO and Sheltair all carry 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Runway 14 has a berm 20 ft tall 200 ft before the threshold. It sits 465 ft right of centerline. Taxiway R5 and terminal gate B1 are restricted to aircraft with wingspans of 118 ft or less. Diverted aircraft should use the terminal ramp. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
