HAWTHORNE FLD sits near Kountze and Silsbee in southeast Texas. Field elevation is 70.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 13/31, which is 4,303 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. Runway 31 has a PAPI that is out of service. The runway lights on 13/31 are medium intensity lights set to low from dusk to dawn. You can increase intensity by activating them on CTAF. Runway and taxiway markings on runway 13 are faded, so pay close attention on taxi and rollout.
Hardin County Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Twenty-four hour self-serve 100LL is available. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Houston Approach handles IFR on 121.3 or 377.1. For clearance delivery, contact Houston Approach directly. If you are coming in at night or in marginal weather, plan for an uncontrolled field with no published ILS and verify the current Chart Supplement before departure.
