RWY 16

Morehouse Memorial Airport is in Bastrop, Louisiana. The field elevation is 167.7 ft MSL. It has one runway, 16/34, which is 4,002 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is 1,033 ft AGL, which is 1,200.7 ft MSL.

No ILS approaches are published here. For clearance delivery, contact Monroe Approach. If that is unavailable, use Fort Worth ARTCC. The airport sits in a non-towered environment, so expect standard CTAF self-announce work. Deer are reported on and near the runway. That is worth keeping in mind on taxi, takeoff and landing.

Lighting is available from dusk to dawn. Runway end identifier lights are on runways 16 and 34. The medium intensity runway lights on 16/34 are preset to low intensity at night. Use the CTAF to increase intensity. The precision approach path indicator on runway 16 is out of service indefinitely. Runway 34 runway end identifier lights are also out of service indefinitely. Markings on both ends are reported in poor condition.

Morehouse Memorial Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL. Self-serve 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. Contact the airport manager for designated ramp space for public use before you arrive.
