Platteville Muni (KPVB) sits in Platteville, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 1,025.2 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 4,000 ft. Runway 07/25 is 3,600 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7.
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 FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field has one on-field FBO. Apex Aero Center is on the airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Twenty-four hour self-serve fuel is available with a credit card.
Lighting is worth planning for before arrival. Runway end identifier lights are installed on 15 and 33. PAPI is installed on 07, 15, 25 and 33. Medium intensity runway lights are on both runways and are controlled by CTAF. The 15/33 lights are preset low from sunset to sunrise. You can increase intensity on CTAF. For clearance delivery, if you cannot reach flight service, contact Chicago Center at 630-906-8921. First-time pilots should also verify current noise or local operating notes in the FAA Chart Supplement before flying in.
