RWY 36

Roosevelt Meml is in Warm Springs, Georgia. Field elevation is 882.4 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 5,004 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. This is a VFR-only field. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field sits in a non-towered environment, so plan for self-announce traffic and close attention in the pattern.

Lighting is straightforward for night work. Medium intensity runway lights on 18/36 are activated through the CTAF. The PAPI on both ends runs continuously. That helps on a short local leg or a late arrival. For clearance delivery, Atlanta Approach is listed in the remarks. When Atlanta Approach is closed, contact Atlanta ARTCC. The on-field FBO is Meriwether County Airport Authority. It carries 100LL. If you need current service details before departure, call the FBO directly. First-time arrivals should also verify any current Chart Supplement notes before flying in, especially since this field is VFR only.
