Eagles Aerodrome sits near Conway, Texas. Field elevation is 3,475 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 5,000 ft long and turf. The runway surface is rough. There are deep tire ruts reported across the runway about 660 ft and 1,700 ft from the north end. Wind turbines are noted in the vicinity, so plan your arrival with that in mind.

This is an untowered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current traffic pattern altitude before you go. The published lighting note says the runway has nonstandard low intensity lights, with only the center 3,500 ft lighted. The lights are out of service indefinitely. A lighting schedule is listed from dusk to 0100, so confirm current status before a night arrival.

There is no on-field FBO listed. For clearance delivery, contact Albuquerque ARTCC at 505-856-4861. The field also has a 25 ft power line about 300 ft from runway 17. For a first-time visit, treat this as a rough turf strip with high elevation and limited lighting. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and call the airport operator before you launch.
