Decatur County Industrial Air Park is in Bainbridge, Georgia. The field elevation is 141.3 ft MSL. It has 2 asphalt runways. The longest is 5,502 ft on runway 09/27. There is no control tower, so plan for CTAF work and local traffic flow.
The airport has 1 ILS approach. It serves runway 27. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so verify the current Chart Supplement before you go. The on-field FBO is Decatur County Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A Prist. Self-service 100LL is available 24 hours with a credit card.
A few operational notes matter here. Local training traffic is heavy. All aircraft operating locally must have a two-way radio that can transmit and receive on CTAF. Runway 09 and 27 lighting is available by CTAF after 2200. The PAPI for 09 and 27 runs continuously from dusk to 2200. Runway 27 also has MALSR available via CTAF. If you need clearance delivery and the frequency is not available, contact Tallahassee Approach. If approach is closed, contact Jacksonville ARTCC. For a first-time arrival, brief the lighting setup. Expect student traffic. Verify the current pattern altitude and any local procedures before departure.
