RWY 15

Indianapolis Metro is in Indianapolis, Indiana. The field elevation is 811.3 ft MSL. It has one runway, 15/33, which is 4,004 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published, so plan with current weather and the available non-precision options in mind.

The published pattern altitude is not listed. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Tom Wood Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. The published remarks also note an outside phone is available.

Runway 15 is the preferred runway during calm wind or any questionable period. That matters here because the Chart Supplement also calls out trees near the displaced threshold on 15. There is a 500 ft AGL moored hot air balloon about 4.4 miles north-northwest of the airport. It operates daily from 1300 to 2200 Zulu and is internally illuminated. Runway end identifier lights are on 15 and 33. Medium intensity runway lights on both ends are controlled by CTAF. Check the current Chart Supplement for any updated local procedures before you go.
