Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. PAVL is non-towered, so pilots self-announce. Pilots also self-sequence in the pattern. Use extra care with local traffic, wind and runway condition on the gravel surface. Runway 12/30 is the only runway, so pattern work will center on that strip.

Every end, one page

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