Talkeetna Airport sits in Talkeetna, Alaska at 365 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 01/19 is 3,500 ft long with a concrete surface. There is no control tower. Traffic pattern information is published in the C notice. Pattern altitude is not published, so a light piston pilot should verify the current pattern details before arrival. No ILS approaches are published here.
The field has two on-field FBOs. Crowley Aviation Fuels carries 100LL and Jet A. Sheldon Air Service carries 100LL. Fuel is available 24 hours a day. After-hours use needs prior permission. This is a cold temperature airport, so altitude correction is required at or below minus 28 degrees Celsius. Runway 01/19 is closed to aircraft over 12,500 pounds. Contact the airport manager if that matters to your flight.
A few operational items matter here. Runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual check before use is smart. There is an obstruction near runway 01 that exceeds a 45 degree slope. Medium intensity runway lights are activated on CTAF. The VASI for runways 01 and 19 operate continuously. Keep all operations on the common traffic advisory frequency. Walking on taxiways and aprons is not authorized.
