Arctic Village Airport sits in Arctic Village, Alaska. The field elevation is 2,092 ft MSL. It has one runway, 02/20, which is 4,500 ft long and gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. The runway is unmaintained, so a visual inspection before landing is a good idea. The runway also slopes downhill to the southwest. Line of sight between runway ends is not available, so plan your traffic calls carefully. Lighting is available from dusk to dawn. Runway end identifier lights for runway 20 are activated from dusk to dawn. Medium intensity runway lights for runways 02 and 20 are controlled on CTAF.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need local services. The beacon is out of service indefinitely. This is also a cold temperature airport. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 37 degrees Celsius. A weather camera is available through the FAA weather camera system.
