MALIN is in Malin, Oregon. The field elevation is 4,053 ft MSL. It has one runway, 14/32, which is 2,800 ft long and asphalt. This is an uncontrolled airport. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Malin Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL.

The published remarks matter here. The parking apron is not equipped with tie downs. Runway 14 has a fence on the centerline about 100 feet from the threshold. Runway 32 has non-standard displaced threshold markings. It also has smaller-than-standard numbers. It has no centerline. It has a white-chevron threshold marking. There is also a gate near the Runway 32 end. The taxiway has no centerline marking. Remote controlled aircraft are reported in the vicinity.

This is a high-elevation field. Expect performance to matter, especially on warm days. The runway is short enough that takeoff and landing planning should be conservative. If you need clearance delivery, the published remark points pilots to Seattle ARTCC by phone. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go for any updated operational notes.
