Pekin Muni sits in Pekin, Illinois at 530 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 5,000 ft of asphalt, which gives a solid margin for light piston work and many turboprop operations. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. St Louis Approach handles the area on 125.8 and 269.2. Clearance delivery is also handled through St Louis Approach at 314-890-1017.
No ILS approaches are published here. The runway lighting is useful to know before a night arrival. Runway end identifier lights are installed on 09 and 27. PAPI is also installed on both ends. The medium intensity runway lights are preset low. Use the CTAF to bring them up if needed.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Wildlife is reported in the area, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and final. The airport also has an on-field FBO, Pekin Municipal Airport, which carries AVGAS 100LL and JET A PRIST. The manager cell number is 309-287-2496. If you need access to the administration building, the published cipher lock instructions apply.
