KJRA is the West 30th St Heliport in Manhattan, New York, New York. Field elevation is 7 ft MSL. There are no runways listed here. This is a heliport, so plan for helicopter operations rather than fixed-wing arrivals. No control tower is published. For clearance delivery, contact New York Approach at 516-683-2849.
No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the current FAA Chart Supplement and fly the published helicopter procedures for the field. The published remarks say all takeoffs and landings are made only over the Hudson River. That matters here. It keeps traffic aligned with the water and away from the city side. More than 40-foot lights are located at the south end of the heliport. More than 10-foot fencing is along the east edge of the heliport and between landing spots 2 and 3. Helipad H3 has no ingress or egress over 12th Avenue. North and South finger pier pads are closed.
Air Pegasus is on field. It carries JET_A and JET_A_PRIST. Parking is available. The field sits in Manhattan, so expect a dense urban environment with tight visual cues and heavy helicopter activity. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and coordinate with the airport operator or Air Pegasus before arrival.
