Prattville/Grouby Fld sits in Prattville, Alabama. Field elevation is 224.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 5,400 ft long. That is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Approach and departure service is available through Montgomery on 121.2 and 269.05.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field has active runway end identifier lights on 09 and 27. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 09/27 and are controlled by CTAF. Published remarks also note a ground control outlet on 121.725. There is an obstruction to the sky near runway 09 that is listed as indefinite, so give the departure path a careful look before you launch.
Prattville Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. The remarks say both fuels are available 24 hours with credit card service. If you need clearance delivery and ground control outlet service is not available, contact Atlanta ARTCC. For local operating details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly.
