Courtland Airport sits in Courtland, Alabama at 588 ft MSL. It has two concrete runways. The longest is 4,994 ft on runway 13/31. Runway 18/36 is 3,484 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. Approach and departure service is through Huntsville on 118.05 and 239.0. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. The field is listed for VFR use only. That matters here because runway 18/36 has rough concrete, including potholes and loose chunks near the runway 36 end. The published remarks also call out uneven concrete blocks and joints near the approach end of runway 31. Markings on runways 13, 31 and 36 are faded.

Courtland Airport has one on-field FBO, Courtland Airport. It carries 100LL. 100LL is available 24 hours a day with a credit card. High intensity lights on runway 13/31 come up in low intensity by default. Use the CTAF to increase them. There are no taxiway lights. If you need clearance delivery, contact Huntsville Approach. If approach is closed, use Memphis ARTCC. Plan for a small, non-towered field with limited lighting. The runway surface deserves a close look before landing.
