Santa Rosa Route 66 Airport sits in Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Field elevation is 4,791.4 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 01/19 at 5,013 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. The field is high enough that density altitude can matter, especially on warm days. Expect a little less performance than you would at a low-elevation strip.
Santa Rosa Route 66 Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries AVGAS 100LL and JET A. 100LL is listed as available 24 hours with credit card. The airport remarks also say to call ahead to the airport manager. Published notes mention wildlife on and near the airport. There are also runway-end obstructions near 01 and 19, plus a small access road near the 08 end. The runway lights on 01/19 and 08/26 are medium intensity. They are preset dusk to 2200. After 2200, activate them on CTAF. For clearance delivery, contact Albuquerque ARTCC. Ground access uses gate code 9942.
