Grand Prairie Muni sits in Grand Prairie, Texas, at 590 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 4,001 ft long and paved with concrete. The airport is towered. Tower hours are 0700-2100 daylight time and 0800-1800 standard time. No ILS approaches are published here. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and your approach setup before you go.
The published pattern altitude is 812 ft AGL for fixed wing aircraft. That is 1,402 ft MSL. Rotary wing pattern altitude is 612 ft AGL. That is 1,202 ft MSL. The field has a lot of helicopter traffic on the west side. The west grass area is for rotary wing use only. There is also a 165-foot water tower about one quarter mile west of the runway, so keep that in mind on arrival and departure.
Two FBOs are on the field. Grand Prairie Municipal Airport carries 100LL and Jet A. Spartan Flight Academy carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Published remarks say there are no ADS-B billing or landing fees. Short-term transient ramp use is free. When the tower is closed, clearance delivery goes through Lone Star Approach. Runway 18/36 has medium intensity lights preset to low. Use the CTAF to increase intensity and to activate runway end identifier lights on runway 36 after tower hours.
