John Bell Williams Airport sits in Raymond, Mississippi. The field elevation is 247 ft MSL. It has one runway, 12/30, which is 5,499 ft long. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The airport has one ILS approach on runway 12. Runway 12 and runway 30 both have runway end identifier lights. Medium intensity runway lights are on both ends. They are controlled by CTAF. PAPI is available on both runway ends and operates continuously. That helps after dark, since the field is non-towered.
Hinds Community College is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card. A courtesy car is available. Pilots must bring their own tiedown ropes. If you need clearance delivery when approach is closed, contact Memphis ARTCC using the numbers in the Chart Supplement. For a first visit, plan for a non-towered arrival on CTAF 123.0 or UNICOM 123.0. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or operating notes before you go.
