Tonopah Airport sits in Tonopah, Nevada. The field elevation is 5,430.3 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 7,160 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use a standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. KT Aero is on the field. It carries 100LL and JET A. Call 209-504-4612 for current service details. Published remarks also note medium intensity runway lighting on both runways. Runway 15 has PAPI. Lighting is controlled on CTAF.
This is a high-elevation desert airport, so expect performance to feel different than at lower fields. Check density altitude before departure. Runway 11/29 has a published cracking issue with full-length lateral and longitudinal cracks wider than 4 inches. Use caution and inspect the runway condition in the current Chart Supplement before you go. Fuel is available from 0700 to 1800. After hours, call 775-482-3626 for overrun service. For clearance delivery when Flight Service is not available, contact Nellis Approach at 702-652-4172.
