Fulton County Airport (KRCR) sits in Rochester, Indiana. The field elevation is 789.5 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 11/29 is 5,001 ft long with an asphalt surface. There is no control tower. The runway end identifier lights, the PAPI for Runways 11 and 29, the medium intensity runway lights for 11/29 and the airport beacon are activated by CTAF. 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. That puts the traffic pattern at about 1,790 ft MSL based on the field elevation.
Fulton County Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. 100LL self-service fuel is available 24 hours a day. For clearance delivery, South Bend Approach handles it when open. When South Bend Approach is closed, Chicago ARTCC handles clearance delivery. This is a small non-towered field, so keep your radio work tight on CTAF 122.7. The published remarks also note that the airport has been surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or local operating notes before you go.
