Lafayette Muni is in Lafayette, Tennessee. The field elevation is 969 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 5,200 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,969 ft MSL.
No ILS approaches are published here. This is a VFR-only field per the published remarks, so plan your arrival with that in mind. For clearance delivery, contact Nashville Approach at 615-695-4522. The on-field FBO is Skychaser Aviation. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Credit card self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours.
One operational item stands out. There is a 25 to 1 obstacle clearance slope from the departure threshold of runway 01. That makes the departure end worth a close look during preflight and takeoff planning. With no tower on the field, use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic calls and expect self-announce procedures. If you need current noise or local operating restrictions beyond the published remarks, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
