GAV AIR (94R) sits in Wharton, Texas. Field elevation is 90 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 15/33 is 2,167 ft long with an asphalt-dirt surface. The runway headings are 162° and 342° magnetic. No tower is published here. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at 1,090 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so plan ahead for services before you go.
The published remarks matter here. A 4 ft fence crosses the runway 33 threshold. A 15 ft tree sits near the runway 15 side. The airport is closed one hour before sunset until one hour after sunrise each day. For clearance delivery, Houston ARTCC is listed at 281-230-5622. This is a small field with a short runway. Check performance carefully, especially if you are operating a heavier aircraft or dealing with a tailwind component.
