Minto Al Wright Airport sits in Minto, Alaska at 499.8 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 02/20 is 3,400 ft long and gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
For pattern work, use the published pattern altitude if you have it from the current Chart Supplement. The facts provided here do not give a published pattern altitude, so verify that before you fly. The runway headings are magnetic. The field has medium intensity runway lights on 02/20. The PAPI and runway end identifier lights are tied to CTAF activation. The rotating beacon is also CTAF activated.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan on self-sufficiency and confirm current services with the airport operator before arrival. Published remarks also note winter snow removal activity on CTAF, waterfowl near the runway approaches and an unmonitored runway condition. A visual check before landing is a good idea. Expect irregular winds here. A weather camera is available online for a current look at the field.
