BAILES (7R9) sits near Angleton, Texas. Field elevation is 21 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 2,060 ft of turf, so plan for a short-field surface and check conditions before you go. No control tower is published. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the current FAA Chart Supplement for the published traffic pattern information before arrival. The runway headings are magnetic. Runway 17 is marked at the end with a concrete pad. Runway 35 is marked with white tires north of the south boundary tree line. The runway markings are obscured by vegetation, so a first-time arrival should be ready to identify the strip visually before committing.
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. For IFR work, clearance delivery is handled through Houston Approach at 281-443-5844. If you need to cancel IFR, use 281-443-5888. The field is low and coastal. Expect to pay attention to soft-field technique, runway condition and local visibility before you launch.
