Real County Airport sits near Leakey, Texas. Field elevation is 1,640 ft MSL. This is a VFR-only field with no tower. No published ILS approaches are listed in the facts provided. 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 published remarks matter here. The FAA notes displaced runway use tied to obstacle clearance over US-83. There are trees near the threshold. There is also a road and a pipe gate near the approach path. Ultralight activity is listed adjacent to the runway. Fence, berm and trees are also noted in the primary surface parallel to the runway. That makes a current preflight review important before you plan an arrival.
CTAF is 122.9. For clearance delivery, the published contact is Laughlin Approach. If that is closed, Houston ARTCC is listed as the backup contact. No on-field FBOs are listed in the facts provided. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement or contact the airport operator directly before you go.
