Winkler County Airport is in Wink, Texas. The field elevation is 2,821.6 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 13/31 at 5,003 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport has been surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey. Runway lights on 04/22 and 13/31 are preset to low intensity. Use CTAF to increase intensity.
The on-field FBO is Winkler County Airport. It carries JET_A_PRIST. Fuel is also listed as available 24 hours self-serve or full service. The airport sits in west Texas at a relatively high elevation, so density altitude will matter on warm days. For clearance delivery if you cannot reach Flight Service, contact Fort Worth ARTCC at 817-858-7584. Check the current Chart Supplement before departure for any published noise or operating notes.
