Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published for Z81. For light piston operations, plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local guidance says different. Field elevation is 509 ft MSL, so that puts a standard pattern near 1,509 ft MSL. There is no control tower. Self-announce and sequence with other traffic as needed. The only runway listed is 15/33, so runway choice will depend on wind and traffic. 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.
