Charleston Exec is in Charleston, South Carolina. The field elevation is 18.6 ft MSL. It has two concrete runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 5,350 ft. There is no control tower. One ILS is published for runway 09.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport uses CTAF 122.8. Charleston Approach handles clearance delivery. The published remarks also note deer and birds on and near the airport. That matters here. Keep your scan active on departure and in the pattern.
Atlantic Aviation is on field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. If you need current ramp or fuel details, call them directly at (843) 559-2401. Runway 04 has a tree line 231 ft east of the threshold. Runway 27 has a displaced-threshold approach slope note. The lighting setup is pilot-controlled through CTAF. Runway 09 and 27 have PAPI and high intensity lights. Runway 04 and 22 use medium intensity lights. For a first trip, plan for a busy coastal airport environment and verify any current procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
