Unalaska Airport (PADU) has 1 runway. Runway 13/31 is 4,500 ft long and 100 ft wide. The surface is asphalt. The runway headings are 136° and 316° magnetic. No ILS runway ends are published. The field elevation is 23.3 ft MSL.

This is a non-towered field. There are no published noise abatement notes. Runway 31 has right traffic. Pilots should plan with the current FAA Chart Supplement and check aviationweather for live METAR/TAF before departure. The single-runway layout keeps the field simple, but the right-traffic note on 31 matters for pattern work and local traffic flow.

Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is 2,078 ft AGL. That is 2,101.3 ft MSL at this field elevation. The airport is not tower controlled, so pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Runway 31 has right traffic. Runway 13 does not have a published right-traffic note in the facts provided. Use standard pattern discipline and expect local traffic to work the single runway in both directions as conditions allow.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
