RWY 10

Midland Intl Air and Space Port sits in Midland, Texas at 2,872.1 ft MSL. It has four asphalt runways. The longest is 16R/34L at 9,501 ft. The field is towered from 0600 to 0000. One ILS is published for runway 10. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a Class C field. Expect busy commercial traffic and coordinated taxi instructions. Signature Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. The airport remarks matter here. Runways 04/22 and 16L/34R are closed to aircraft over 60,000 pounds. Taxiways B and F north of runway 10/28 are also closed to aircraft over 60,000 pounds. If you are in a heavy aircraft, check the current Chart Supplement before you go.

The airport also has bird activity in and around the field. Numerous oil rigs are nearby at or below 200 ft AGL. That is worth keeping in mind on departure and arrival. When the tower is closed, lighting is preset for the main runways and some lights are activated by CTAF. For any current noise, curfew, or special operating limits, verify the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator or FBO directly before departure.
