Beauregard RGNL sits in De Ridder, Louisiana. Field elevation is 201.8 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 5,494 ft. Runway 18/36 is asphalt-concrete. Runway 14/32 is asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is 1,000 ft AGL, which is 1,201.8 ft MSL.

No ILS approaches are published here, so plan with the current approach data before you go. The field uses CTAF 122.8 and UNICOM 122.8. If you need clearance delivery and cannot reach FSS, the published remark points pilots to MAKS Approach. The airport also lists MAKS Approach VOIP on the field data. That matters if you are arriving IFR or need help coordinating.

Beauregard Regional Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. 100LL is available 24 hours self-serve with credit card. For Jet A after hours or on holidays, call ahead. Published remarks also note runway 18 markings are faded. Runway 36 markings are faded too. The approach slope is 20 to 1 to the displaced threshold. Brief that on final. Contact the airport manager for designated ramp space for public use.
