Tri-Cities Airport sits in Bristol, Johnson City and Kingsport, Tennessee. Field elevation is 1,518.6 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 05/23 at 8,000 ft. Runway 09/27 is 4,443 ft. The tower is open from 0600 to 0000. Two ILS approaches are published for runway ends 05 and 23.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the common pattern reference near 2,519 ft MSL. Tri-Cities is a U.S. Customs user fee airport. Birds are reported on and in the vicinity of the airport, so keep a sharp scan on departure and arrival. Runway 09/27 is unavailable when the tower is closed.
Tri-City Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A with Prist support. For clearance delivery, if you cannot reach Flight Service on the published frequency, contact Atlanta ARTCC at 770-210-7692. Large aircraft crews should note the published taxiway restriction near runway 05. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or operating notes before you go.
