Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement before arrival. Signature Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (314) 731-7111 for current ramp and fuel details. Published remarks also note that landing fees based on aircraft weight are collected by the FBO.

That matters if you are arriving behind airline traffic or taxiing near the Charlie and Echo pads. Runway 12R has a published displaced-threshold approach ratio note. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or operational updates before flying in.
