The Red River Airport (0R7) sits in Coushatta, Louisiana. Field elevation is 177.2 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 5,002 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

No ILS approaches are published here. The runway has medium intensity lights. The runway end identifier lights are preset low from dusk to dawn. You can raise intensity on CTAF. The airport beacon is out of service. PAPI is out of service on both runway ends. There are also 66 ft trees 253 ft east of the runway centerline for the full length of the runway, so plan your departure and arrival path with that in mind.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Contact the airport manager for designated ramp space before arrival. For clearance delivery, Fort Worth ARTCC handles it at 817-858-7584. If you are new to the field, note the lack of tower service and the published lighting issues. That makes a current briefing important before a night arrival or a low-visibility departure.
