PAJZ is the airport at KOLIGANEK, Alaska. Field elevation is 271.8 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 3,300 ft long and gravel. The airport is non-towered. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway headings are 106° and 286° magnetic. That matters here because the field sits in Alaska and the runway is not paved.
Published remarks call out a few things a pilot should not skip. The runway condition is unmonitored, so look it over before landing. The surface has heaves and humps. It is also sloughing off into tundra. The runway slopes down toward the west end. Thresholds on both ends are marked with lights. Medium intensity runway lights are available on 09/27. The rotating beacon and the PAPI on both ends are activated by CTAF. There is also a weather camera online for a preflight look.
No on-field FBOs are listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need fuel or other services.
