RWY 34

Tununak Airport sits in Tununak, Alaska. The field elevation is 62.3 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 16/34 is 3,300 ft long and gravel. The runway headings are 168° and 348° magnetic. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.

The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,062.3 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. The airport has no on-field FBOs listed, so plan on local coordination before you go.

A first-time pilot should pay close attention to the runway notes. The Chart Supplement says runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual inspection before use is recommended. It also notes birds and wildlife in and near the airport. Runway 16/34 has heaves and dips along the full length. That matters on a gravel strip, especially if you are landing light or operating with a tailwind margin that is already tight. Check the current Chart Supplement for any other local remarks before departure.
