Coleman A Young Muni is in Detroit, Michigan. The field elevation is 624.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 15/33, which is 5,092 ft long. The airport has a control tower with 24-hour service. Two ILS approaches are published, one for runway 15 and one for runway 33.
The pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the common light-aircraft pattern reference at 1,624.2 ft MSL. The runway headings are magnetic. Runway 15 is 143° magnetic. Runway 33 is 323° magnetic.
Avflight Detroit City is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Fuel system ice inhibitor is available upon request. The published remarks also note large birds in and near the airport. There is an unlighted tower 1 mile west-southwest that stands 275 ft AGL. Runway 33 has a PAPI note. It is unusable beyond 9 degrees right of centerline.
This is a busy Detroit-area airport. Expect controlled-airport procedures and local traffic flow. There is also a landing fee for aircraft 6,000 lb or greater. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updated local procedures before you go.
