Conway Airport Information:
Suggested pattern altitude: 1000 AGL for General Aviation and 500 foot for Ultralights.
Reminder: Conway Airport is Class G Airspace (no control tower). Therefore, the airport is easy to get into and out of, experimental and ultralight friendly, traffic is light, we have fuel on-field, there is plenty of parking, and the FBO is really nice.
