Jeremiah Denton Airport (4R9) sits on Dauphin Island, Alabama. Field elevation is 4.6 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 12/30, which is 3,000 ft long with asphalt pavement. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. This is a VFR-only field. Birds are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on departure and arrival. Runway lighting is medium intensity and controlled by CTAF. PAPI is active on both runway ends. The published remarks also note a 50:1 approach slope to the displaced threshold on runway 12.
For clearance delivery, contact Mobile Approach at 251-662-6236. When approach is closed, contact Houston ARTCC at 281-230-5622. With the field sitting just above sea level on the island, expect coastal conditions to matter more than terrain. Check the current Chart Supplement for any local procedures before you go.
