Smiley Johnson Muni/Bass Fld sits in Clarendon, Texas. Field elevation is 2,832.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 01/19 is 4,496 ft of asphalt, which 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 in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks also note a rotating beacon on 122.8. Runway 01/19 has medium intensity lights that come up in low intensity from dusk to dawn. Use 122.8 to increase intensity. There is also a 5-foot berm near the runway 01 end, off to the right side. The straight-out approach to runway 01 has a 20 to 1 slope note. The field has no line of sight between runway ends, so plan your traffic and taxi calls with that in mind.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival if you need services. The airport manager is the city administration. For clearance delivery, contact Albuquerque ARTCC at 505-856-4861. This is a high-elevation airport, so expect performance to matter on warm days. Check density altitude before you go.
