Monroe County Airport sits in Bloomington, Indiana. Field elevation is 845.5 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 6,500 ft. The control tower is open daily from 0630 to 2130. There is 1 ILS approach. It serves runway 35.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. On the field, BMG Jet Center carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Cook Aviation carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. If you need current ramp or fuel details, call the FBO directly before arrival.
This is a busy controlled field for the Bloomington area. Runway 06 has nearby trees and a road off the departure end. Runway 24 has a fence near the threshold and a road near the approach path. Runway 06/24 is also restricted for some passenger-carrying operations. When the tower is closed, lighting is activated by CTAF. Check the current Chart Supplement for any published noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field. For clearance delivery, contact Hulman Approach. If you are planning a first trip, brief the runway 35 ILS, the tower hours and the runway 17/35 pavement strength before you go.
