P72 is Penn's Landing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It sits at 15 ft MSL on the Delaware River waterfront. This is a heliport, not a runway airport. No runways are listed. The field has no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations only if that matches your aircraft and the current procedure. The published remarks matter here. H1 ingress is from 230 and 310 degrees magnetic. Egress is from 050 and 130 degrees magnetic. The pad has shallow surface depressions. There is also a lighted building 660 feet north of the pad. Green lights are on the east and south sides only.
No on-field FBOs are listed. For clearance delivery, contact Philadelphia Approach at 800-354-9884. For weekend and holiday attendance, call 215-271-2510. If you are planning a first arrival, review the current Chart Supplement and confirm the pad status before launch. This is a constrained downtown operating environment with no published runway system, so treat the remarks and lighting notes as primary briefing items.
