KSTL is in St Louis, Missouri. Field elevation is 617.3 ft MSL. The airport has 4 runways. The longest is 11,020 ft on 12R/30L. The tower is open 24 hours. Eight ILS approaches are published for runway ends 06, 11, 12L, 12R, 24, 29, 30L and 30R.
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.
This is busy Class B airspace. Expect a high-workload arrival and close attention to ATC instructions. The field also has taxiway restrictions tied to large aircraft movement. 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.
