PFKA is the airport at Kasigluk, Alaska. The field elevation is 47.9 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,000 ft long with a gravel-dirt surface. The runway headings are 186° and 6° magnetic. The airport is not 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 FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks matter here. Runway 17/35 has medium intensity lights that activate on CTAF. The runway slopes up 1 percent to the south. The first 200 ft of runway 17 can be soft when wet. Runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual check before landing is a good idea. Birds are reported on and near the airport. Wind turbines are also within the traffic pattern. Their top lights are not blades. There is no on-field FBO listed, so contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current fuel and service availability.
