Airport Information

Just Minutes from Downtown Portland
Aero Maintenance Flight Center is located on the historic Pearson Airfield (VUO) located in Vancouver, Washington. Pearson Field is home to Fort Vancouver and the Pearson Air Museum.

Pattern Operations
Pearson Field is a Class D airport that currently has a temporary control tower through October 6, 2011. Enter and leave the pattern from the northwest over Vancouver Lake. Departures typically stay to the west side of the lake and arrivals to the east. For noise abatement, climb straight ahead on both runways to 700 MSL; do not over fly Fort Vancouver and make all turns west of Smith Tower. Remain below 1,100 MSL until more than 5 NM from Portland VOR to avoid Class C airspace.
