Engstrom Fld is in Basin Creek, Alaska. The field elevation is 143 ft MSL. It has one runway, 16/34, which is 2,000 ft long with a gravel-dirt surface. The airport is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light-piston pattern unless local conditions or current guidance say otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,143 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The runway headings are 173° and 353° magnetic. Published remarks matter here. There is a private road about 70 ft from the runway 16 threshold. The runway can be soft during the rain season. Tall grass is also reported on the runway. Runway condition is not monitored, so a careful visual check before landing makes sense.
No on-field FBOs are listed. Plan fuel and services accordingly. For any current operational details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly before you go. This is a small Alaska strip with a short unpaved runway, so surface condition and braking action deserve attention on every arrival.
