Taylor Flat (TF9) sits near Dutch John, Utah. Field elevation is 5,638 ft MSL. It has one runway. The longest runway is 08/26 at 2,500 ft on dirt. This is a non-towered field, so plan for self-announce traffic and normal see-and-avoid work in the pattern.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. With the field sitting at 5,638 ft MSL, density altitude can be a real factor on warm days. Expect longer takeoff rolls and a slower climb than you would see at lower elevation fields. Runway headings are listed as magnetic in the airport data. The published headings are 08 and 26.

No on-field FBOs are listed. That means fuel and service options need to be verified before you go. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly for the latest operational details. The published remarks include a note for Matt Tippets, so verify any local coordination details before arrival. This is a small, high-elevation dirt strip. A first-time pilot should treat it as a performance planning airport and confirm runway condition, winds and surface condition before committing.
