The 2013-2014 Wisconsin Airport Directory and Pilot’s Guide is here! In addition to the typical updating of airport information at the 133 public-use airports in Wisconsin, this guide includes updated and improved aerial imagery of each airport.
An iPad version is also available. You can view the entire directory as one PDF file, with bookmarks, to easily jump to desired pages. Individual pages are also on the WisDOT website at http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/travel/air/airportdirectory.htm.
Updates are often made between printed editions, so check back for possible changes. In fact, one significant change occurred after the latest edition went to the printer. The tower frequency for Sparta/Fort McCoy (CMY) changed to 123.45 Mhz. Also, the fixed base operator listed for Merrill Municipal Airport (RRL) should be John Miller Aviation, with the phone number (715) 536-2024.
Directories are mailed to aircraft owners who have paid their annual registration fee. They can be purchased at your local FBO or directly from WisDOT by sending $3.00 to:
