Metropolis Muni sits in Metropolis, Illinois. The field elevation is 384.3 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, at 4,002 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Metropolis Municipal Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL. Self-service fuel is available 24 hours with credit card. The airport also notes a factory about 4,000 ft southwest of runway 18/36, so plan your departure and arrival path with that in mind.
This is a non-towered field, so expect self-announce traffic and standard see-and-avoid work. The airport is in Metropolis, which is in southern Illinois near the Kentucky border. If you need IFR clearance, contact Memphis ARTCC using the published numbers before departure. For any current noise, operating, or airport-use details, verify with the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly.
