Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, assume a standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local conditions or ATC say otherwise. PFYU has no control tower, so self-announced traffic and local sequencing matter. With one runway, pattern work is straightforward. Runway 04/22 is the only published runway. No right-traffic exception is published. No special pattern notes are published in the facts.

Every end, one page

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