Slidell Airport is in Slidell, Louisiana. Field elevation is 28.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 18/36, which is 5,002 ft long. It is an untowered field. Traffic pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. No ILS approaches are published here.
The on-field FBO is Slidell Municipal Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL and JET A PRIST. 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. For jet fuel after hours, call the number in the Chart Supplement remarks before you go. The field also notes wildlife on and near the runway. That is worth planning for on taxi, takeoff and landing.
There is medium intensity runway lighting on 18/36. The runway end identifier lights are preset low from dusk to dawn. Use the CTAF to increase intensity. New Orleans Approach handles approach and departure services. Clearance delivery is also handled through New Orleans Approach. The airport is unattended on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. If you need ramp space for public use, contact the airport manager before arrival. The field sits close to sea level, so density altitude is usually not the main issue. Local traffic, wildlife and lighting setup are the bigger items to brief.
