RWY 27

Tallahassee Intl is in Tallahassee, Florida. The field elevation is 83.1 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 8,000 ft. Runway 18/36 is 7,000 ft. The tower is open daily from 0600 to 2300. Two ILS approaches are published. They serve runway ends 27 and 36.

Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. For light piston planning, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,083 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Check the current Chart Supplement before flight if you need the exact published value.

Aero Center is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Million Air is also on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Published remarks note birds on and near the airport. They also note special taxiway limits near taxiway Z. That matters if you are unfamiliar with the ramp and movement area layout. When the tower is closed, lighting for runway 36 and the runway 9, 18, 27 ends can be activated on CTAF. The airport sits in a busy controlled environment. Expect normal towered-airport sequencing. Keep an eye out for bird activity on departure and arrival.
