RWY 33

Rio Vista Muni sits in Rio Vista, California at 22.6 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 07/25 at 4,199 ft. Runway 15/33 is 2,199 ft. There is no control tower, so plan on CTAF 122.725 and standard non-towered procedures unless ATC gives you something different. No ILS approaches are published here.

The pattern altitude is not published. For a light piston, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current FAA Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. That puts you at about 1,023 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport sits in the Delta area, so watch wind shifts and keep an eye on the runway choice. The published remarks say runway 25 is the calm wind runway.

There is one on-field FBO. Rio Vista Municipal Airport carries 100LL. Fast pay fuel is available 24 hours for 100LL. The field also has lighting on both runways, plus PAPI and runway end identifier lights on 07, 15, 25 and 33. The published remarks call out a noise sensitive area north of runway 33. Do not overfly the ranch and corrals off runway 33. All runways require climb to 700 feet before turns. Helicopter traffic has separate routing and altitude notes, so brief that carefully before arrival.
