Scott City Muni (KTQK) sits in Scott City, Kansas. The field elevation is 2,968.7 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 17/35 at 5,002 ft. Runway 08/26 is turf at 2,145 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 3,968.7 ft MSL based on the field elevation, but verify before you fly. The on-field FBO is Scott City Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (620) 872-3000 for current service details.
A few remarks matter here. Runway 17 has a controlling obstruction close enough to matter on approach. Runway 08/26 is reported rough with multiple rodent holes. Runway 17/35 lights are preset to low intensity. Use the CTAF to increase intensity and turn on the runway end identifier lights and PAPI. Birds are also reported in the area. Clearance delivery goes through Denver ARTCC at 303-651-4257. This is a non-towered field at high elevation, so plan for density altitude and performance margins.
