RWY 17

Sutter County Airport (O52) sits in Yuba City, California. The field elevation is 59.6 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 3,045 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport is in a low-elevation valley setting, so density altitude is usually less of a concern than at higher fields, but you should still check conditions before departure.

The on-field FBO is Sutter County Airport. It carries 100LL. Fuel is available by credit card. Published remarks also note that medium intensity runway lights on 17/35 are activated by CTAF. Taxiway reflectors and lighted exit arrows are installed. Agricultural aircraft use a nonstandard traffic pattern here, so give that traffic extra room. Expect it to be different from the standard pattern. For clearance delivery, contact NorCal Approach. First-time arrivals should review the current Chart Supplement for any local procedures before flying in.
