Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard pattern reference unless ATC assigns something different. The field elevation is 715.9 ft MSL, so that puts a light piston pattern near 1,716 ft MSL. The airport is tower controlled. ATC sequences the pattern.

No right-traffic exceptions are published. No runway-specific pattern notes are published. Expect tower instructions to drive runway assignment and pattern flow.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
