The third is Assawoman Bay. By now, you're flying along the Ocean City waterfront. Just due southwest of the Ferris wheel, at the end of the boardwalk, you'll spot the airport. The localizer approach is aligned with runway 14. The field has pilot controlled lighting on 122.8.
Runways are in great condition, with good space for run-ups.
With a field elevation of 12 feet, the traffic pattern altitude is 800 feet. VFR pilots should pay close attention to the restricted area associated with Patuxent, and if you're approaching from the south, mind your altitude over the wildlife preserve at Assateague. When flying along the coastline in the summer, remember to think about the banner-towers, too, and keep in mind that you are between Patuxent and Dover Air Force Base. Enlist the help of your crew to see and avoid. Upon arriving at Ocean City, you may be greeted by one of five airport staff members.
