Tampa Intl sits in Tampa, Florida. Field elevation is 26.5 ft MSL. The airport has 3 runways. The longest is 11,002 ft on 01L/19R. The tower is open 24 hours. Four ILS approaches are published for 01L, 01R, 19L and 19R.
For pattern work, the published pattern altitude is not listed in the facts. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement before you fly. This is a busy Class B airport with published noise abatement procedures. Runway 19L is noise sensitive for turbojet departures. Runway 01R is noise sensitive for turbojet arrivals. First-time pilots should expect heavy airline traffic. Expect close ATC coordination. Expect a lot of ground movement.
Signature Aviation is on the field. Sheltair is on the field too. Both carry 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Terminal apron use needs prior permission. Other aircraft use the general aviation apron. There are also several wingspan and taxiway restrictions that matter for larger aircraft. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and coordinate with airport operations if you are flying anything large or unusual. The airport manager phone number is 813-870-8752.
