RWY 13

Del Rio Intl is in Del Rio, Texas. Field elevation is 1,002.2 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 6,300 ft of asphalt, which is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. The published ILS is for runway 13. Runway 13 has MALSR lighting. Runway 31 has REIL lighting. Runway lighting on 13 and 31 is medium intensity. Taxiway lighting is controlled by CTAF.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement or ATC gives you something different. The field sits near the border region with hot weather. Density altitude can matter in the summer. The published remarks also note a displaced threshold issue on runway 13 with a 50 to 1 slope to that threshold. That is worth checking before arrival. Pico Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. After hours, call the number listed in the Chart Supplement. Clearance delivery is handled through Laughlin Approach when it is open. When approach is closed, contact Houston ARTCC. The airport also publishes landing fees for aircraft above 6,500 pounds maximum takeoff gross weight. Check the current Chart Supplement for any local operating notes before you go.
