Indianola Muni is in Indianola, Mississippi. The field elevation is 126 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 7,004 ft long with concrete pavement. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. For a light piston, plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway lights on 18/36 are pilot-controlled through the CTAF. Taxiway lighting is limited to the east-west taxiway leading to the apron. That matters at night. Pilots should also note that tiedown ropes are not provided. Bring your own.

Valley Air Applicators is on the field. It carries 100LL. If you need maintenance, published remarks say airframe repair and power plant repair are available on request at 662-719-2682. For IFR clearance delivery, contact Memphis ARTCC at 901-368-8453 or 901-368-8449. With a long single runway and no published ILS, this is a straightforward non-towered stop. Still, verify current procedures in the Chart Supplement before you go. That is the best source for any local operating notes, especially if you are planning a night arrival or an IFR departure.
