Carthage-Leake County Airport sits in Carthage, Mississippi. The field elevation is 457 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,000 ft long with an asphalt surface. There is no control tower, so traffic stays on CTAF 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport publishes lighting from dusk to 2200. After 2200, medium intensity runway lights on 17/35 are activated by CTAF. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card. The on-field FBO is Carthage-Leake County Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL.
For a first-time stop, the main things to plan for are the non-towered pattern. Also plan for the after-hours lighting activation. Pilots must provide tiedown ropes. Clearance delivery is handled through Memphis ARTCC at the published phone numbers. Check the current Chart Supplement before departure for any changes to local procedures or operating notes.
