RWY 19

Ralph M Sharpe Airport is in Tunica, Mississippi. Field elevation is 195 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 2,508 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway setup is short. Published remarks also call out trees on the east side south of the runway that break the 7 to 1 transition slope. There is also a road 140 ft from the threshold of runway 01. That makes a close look at the runway environment a good idea before arrival.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Call ahead to reserve. Call the manager if you need current field details. After hours, the published manager number is 662-292-7541. For clearance delivery, contact Memphis Approach at 901-842-8457. If you are planning a first visit, check the current Chart Supplement for any operational changes before you go. The airport is non-towered, so expect self-announced traffic on 122.8 and plan your arrival with the short runway and nearby obstructions in mind.
