Belle Plaine Muni (KTZT) sits in Belle Plaine, Iowa. Field elevation is 771 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 18/36, at 4,001 ft of concrete. It is an untowered field. CTAF is 122.9. Approach and departure support is listed through Cedar Rapids on 119.7 and 266.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 1,771 ft MSL based on the field elevation.
Published remarks matter here. Runway 18/36 lighting is medium intensity and is activated by CTAF. Trees on both sides of the approach to runway 36 penetrate the transitional surface. Wildlife and birds are also reported in the airport area. If you are planning a night arrival or a first visit, brief the runway 36 approach carefully and expect a little extra attention on the final segment. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field directly before you go.
