Throckmorton Muni (72F) sits in Throckmorton, Texas. Field elevation is 1,273 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,723 ft long and is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway is asphalt with concrete patches. The published remarks also say the surface is cracked in places, with loose gravel and uneven areas from patching. Runway lights are obscured by vegetation, so verify lighting status before a night arrival. Runway 17 has nonstandard displaced threshold lights. Runway 35 does not have displaced threshold lights.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator directly before arrival if you need fuel or other services. The airport manager is the mayor. For clearance delivery, contact Fort Worth ARTCC. First-time visitors should plan for a small uncontrolled field with a single runway, no published ILS and runway condition details that deserve a careful preflight and a current surface check.
