Lansing Muni is in Chicago, Illinois. Field elevation is 619.7 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 18/36 at 4,002 ft. There is no control tower, so expect non-towered ops on CTAF 122.7. The field has one ILS approach to runway 36. Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

On the field, Lansing Municipal Airport and Midwest Business Center both carry 100LL and Jet A. Self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. That is useful for late arrivals or early departures. Clearance delivery is handled through Chicago Approach. The published remarks also note that all pattern flying is in a noise sensitive area. Plan your downwind and base work with that in mind. There is also a 146 ft tower near runway 27, 4,325 ft from the threshold and 665 ft right of the extended centerline. Birds and wildlife are reported on and near the airport. Taxiway lights operate on CTAF. Runway end identifier lights are active on all four runway ends. Medium intensity runway lights are on both runways, with runway 18/36 set to low intensity by default and adjustable on CTAF.
