Idaho Falls Rgnl sits in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The field elevation is 4,743.7 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 03/21 at 9,002 ft. The airport is towered. Tower hours are 0700 to 2000. One ILS approach is published for runway 21.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. For this field, that puts the light piston pattern near 5,744 ft MSL. The airport sits in a busy agricultural area. Birds and waterfowl are reported on and near the airport year-round. That matters on departure and in the pattern.
Aero Mark is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Self-service fuel east of taxiway Bravo is available 24 hours. Runway lighting has some tower-closed procedures. Use CTAF for the published lighting activation steps when the tower is closed. Be careful with runway alignment here. Runways 21 and 17 have close approach ends. Runways 03 and 35 also have intersecting flight paths. Check the runway before you turn final or line up. Commercial crews must advise before pushback.
