McMinn County Airport sits in Athens, Tennessee. The field elevation is 874.3 ft MSL. It has one asphalt runway, 02/20, at 6,450 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Knoxville Approach handles radar services on 123.9 or 353.6.
No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport has one on-field FBO, Athens Air. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (423) 745-4939 before arrival if you need current service details.
A few published remarks matter on a first visit. Runway 02 has a displaced threshold with a 36 to 1 approach slope to that threshold. Runway 02 and runway 20 both have faded markings. The PAPI on runway 02 is unusable beyond 7 degrees left of centerline. Wildlife is reported on and near the airport. The field is closed Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. For clearance delivery, contact Knoxville Approach at 865-980-3034. If that does not work, use 865-980-3033. Athens is not a towered field. Plan your arrival with the current Chart Supplement and be ready for local traffic on CTAF.
