Baxter County Airport sits in Mountain Home, Arkansas. Field elevation is 928 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 5,000 ft long with asphalt pavement. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0.
The airport has one ILS approach, published for runway 05. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use standard pattern planning and verify the current Chart Supplement before you go.

A few operational details matter here. Runway 05 has runway end identifier lights. Runways 05 and 23 have precision approach path indicators. Medium intensity runway lights are controlled by CTAF. There is also a note about ground rising slightly near the close-in area at the runway 05 end. That is worth keeping in mind on short final. Clearance delivery is handled through Memphis ARTCC flight data by phone if you need it. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
