George R Carr Meml Air Fld sits in Bogalusa, Louisiana. The field elevation is 119 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 5,002 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower, so plan to use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic calls. The published pattern altitude is not listed. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

An ILS approach is available to runway 18. That makes KBXA a useful stop when the weather starts to come down. The runway lighting is available from dusk to dawn. Runway end identifier lights are on both ends. Medium intensity runway lights are set to low intensity by default at night. Use CTAF to raise the intensity if needed.

Bogalusa Airport is the on-field FBO. It reports 100LL and Jet A self-serve with credit card. Fuel is available 24 hours. Contact the airport manager for designated public ramp space before arrival. For clearances, Houston Center is listed for delivery. This is a non-towered field with a single runway, so keep your radio work tight and watch for local traffic on 122.8.
