Percival Springs is in Watson, Illinois. The field elevation is 552 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 18/36 is a 2,000 ft turf strip with magnetic headings 181° and 1°. The pattern altitude is 400 ft AGL, which is 952 ft MSL. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. The airport sits in a mixed-use environment with predominantly ultralight and short takeoff and landing activity in and near the field. EMS helicopter operations are based at the north end and are continuous. That matters on arrival and departure. Expect to keep your scan active and stay alert for low and slow traffic. The published remarks also note a flashing strobe on the building at the north end. Runway 18 ends are marked with one orange cone on each side. Runway 18/36 also has a 300-foot stopway at the north end.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF for current FBO availability. For clearance delivery, contact Kansas City Air Route Traffic Control Center. Pilots are also advised to monitor 122.725 because of the close proximity of Effingham County Memorial. If you are planning a first visit, treat this as a small turf field with active local traffic and helicopter activity near the north end.
