Crystal Lake Airport sits in Decatur, Arkansas. Field elevation is 1,177.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 3,863 ft long with an asphalt surface. No tower is published here, so plan for CTAF traffic and standard self-announced operations. Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston planning, use 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published at 5M5. That matters if you are planning an IFR arrival in lower weather. Check the current Chart Supplement and the airport operator for the latest approach and airport notes before you launch. Published remarks also flag nonstandard threshold markings on both runway ends. There is a 176-foot tower about 1,300 ft north of runway 13. Deer and geese are reported on and near the airport. Keep a sharp scan on climbout and final.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF or UNICOM for current FBO availability. Clearance delivery is handled through Razorback Approach when it is open. When approach is closed, contact Memphis ARTCC using the numbers in the Chart Supplement. This is a small field with a single runway. Plan your arrival with the terrain, wildlife and obstacle picture in mind.
