Runway 29 has a published obstacle note tied to the displaced threshold. When the tower is closed, lighting is activated on CTAF for runway 36 approach lights, the PAPI for runways 29 and 36, the MIRLs on 11/29 and the HIRLs on 18/36. Check current ATC services and the Chart Supplement before you go. The Atlanta approach frequencies are listed for radar service and IFR handling.
