RWY 17

Majors sits in Greenville, Texas. Field elevation is 534.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 17/35 and it is 8,030 ft long. The tower is open 0730-1600 Monday through Friday. Other hours are irregular, so check current status before you go. There is one ILS approach. It serves runway 17.

The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Greenville Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. 100LL self-serve fuel is available 24 hours. That is useful here because tower coverage is limited outside weekday daytime hours.

A few published remarks matter for planning. Aircraft are not visible from the opposite end of the runway. There is also an obstruction near runway 17 that exceeds a 45 degree slope. A 10-foot road sits close to the runway end. Taxiway E lights sit 47 feet from the pavement edge. The field also has numerous military aircraft on site for modification. If you need clearance delivery when the tower is closed, contact Fort Worth ARTCC. For airport emergencies when the tower is closed, use the published airport phone number. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying into the field.
