Southern West Virginia Rgnl is in Williamson, West Virginia. The field elevation is 1,883.2 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 08/26 is 5,001 ft of asphalt, so plan performance with the elevation in mind. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport sits in a terrain and wildlife environment that deserves attention. Trees are near the runway environment. Birds, deer and bear are reported on and near the airport. Runway 08 has obstructions close in. Runway 26 also has trees off the left side.

Fuel is self-service only. 100LL is available 24 hours. There are no on-field FBOs listed. No terminal building or facilities are available. The entrance gate is closed and locked, so call the airport manager at 606-794-3564 if you need access. Runway lights, REILs and PAPI are on runway 08/26 and are controlled by CTAF. Read the windsock situation carefully. The published remarks say the supplemental windsocks are not vertical, so they are not reliable. For clearance delivery, contact Indianapolis ARTCC at 317-247-2411.
