Garden County/King Rhiley Fld (KOKS) sits in Oshkosh, Nebraska. The field elevation is 3,394.1 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 12/30 is 4,699 ft long with a concrete surface. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 4,394 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. The airport is served by Garden County Airport on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Twenty-four hour self-serve 100LL is available by credit card system.

This is a high-elevation airport, so expect thinner air and longer takeoff rolls than you would see at lower fields. The published remarks also call out runway lighting, PAPI and REIL activation on CTAF for runways 12 and 30. There are tree obstructions near both runway ends, so pay close attention to the published clearance slopes and plan your approach and departure performance with margin. For clearance delivery, contact Denver ARTCC. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go for any updates to lighting, procedures, or local restrictions.
