Butler/Choctaw County Airport sits in Butler, Alabama. Field elevation is 133.7 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 12/30 is 4,082 ft long with asphalt pavement. The airport is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Meridian Approach handles clearance delivery and approach or departure support on 121.275 and 348.7. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. For runway 12, published remarks say the PAPI is unusable beyond 8 degrees left of centerline. Runway 12 also has trees close to the departure end. The controlling obstruction exceeds a 45 degree slope. Runway 12 markings are completely faded. Runway 30 markings are also completely faded. The runway is in poor condition due to extensive cracking with vegetation and raveling.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF or UNICOM for current FBO availability. If you need clearance delivery, Meridian Approach is the published contact. When Meridian Approach is closed, Atlanta ARTCC is the backup contact. This is a small non-towered field with a short runway and degraded markings. A careful stabilized approach matters here.
