Ottawa Muni is in Ottawa, Kansas. The field elevation is 966.4 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 4,500 ft of concrete. Runway 13/31 is 1,550 ft of turf. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Ottawa Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (785) 242-5310 before you go if you need current services. Published remarks also note runway end identifier lights on 17 and 35. PAPI is controlled by CTAF on those runways. The medium intensity lights on 17/35 start at low intensity and can be increased by CTAF.
A first-time pilot should pay attention to the local hazards. There are 75-foot poles north of the airport near runway 17. Power lines are marked with red balls. Wildlife has been reported on and near the field. Taxiway and hold line markings are poor. Ultralight activity is also present. If you need clearance delivery, contact Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. Check the current Chart Supplement for any published noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
