Lighting notes
- High intensity runway lights on runway 04/22 are preset to low from sunset to sunrise. To increase intensity and activate the MALSR on runway 04, use the CTAF. Runway end identifier lights are on runway 22, 14, and 32. Precision approach path indicators are on runway 14. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 14/32. Precision approach path indicators on runway 04 and 22 operate continuously.Show FAA

Batten Intl is in Racine, Wisconsin. The field elevation is 673.6 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is runway 04/22 at 6,574 ft. There is no control tower, so plan on CTAF self-announce work and standard local traffic flow. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Runway 04 has an ILS. That is the only published ILS approach on the field. Runway 04/22 has high intensity lights that are preset low from sunset to sunrise. Use CTAF to increase intensity and to activate the MALSR on runway 04. Runway 14/32 has medium intensity lights. PAPI is published on runway 14. PAPI on 04 and 22 operates continuously. The field is in Racine near Lake Michigan, so expect waterfowl in and around the airport. That matters on departure and on short final.
Racine Commercial Airport Corp. is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. The airport also has published obstruction notes near both runway ends. They are especially relevant on 04, 14 and 22. Check the current Chart Supplement and brief the displaced threshold details before you go in. There is also a jet landing fee noted in the published remarks.
