Common questions about 05U

What charts are available for 05U?

4 current FAA charts for Eureka, including 1 instrument approach. All are free to download as PDFs from this page, from the 6 August 2026 cycle.

What are the radio frequencies for 05U?

CTAF 122.9. Full civil VHF list, with sector notes, is in the frequencies table on this page — from the FAA NASR subscription.

How long is the runway at 05U?

Eureka has 1 runway. The longest is 18/36 at 7,300 ft by 60 ft, asphalt. Full runway dimensions, lighting and approach aids are listed on this page.

Does 05U have an ILS approach?

No ILS is published. In total 05U has 1 published instrument approach, of which 1 are RNAV (GPS).

Which runway do instrument approaches serve at 05U?

Every published approach serves one runway end. There is no instrument procedure to the reciprocal direction, so an arrival in instrument conditions commits to that single approach direction regardless of the wind.

How high is 05U?

The field elevation is 5,957 ft. At that height the air is thin enough to matter: take-off and landing distances are longer than the same aircraft would need at sea level, and the effect worsens as temperature rises. The approach charts carry the altitudes that apply.

Is 05U a towered airport?

No — Eureka has no control tower. Traffic co-ordinates on a common frequency rather than with a controller, which is listed in the frequencies table on this page.

Are these 05U charts current?

They are from the FAA cycle effective 6 August 2026, which is superseded on 3 September 2026. We publish each new cycle on its effective date. They are for flight simulation and reference only — not for real-world navigation.

Wider chart sets

Bulk archives are a PRO benefit. Individual charts are free for everyone, always.
