MYRTLE BEACH INTL sits in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Field elevation is 25 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 18/36, which is 9,503 ft long. The tower is open daily from 0600 to 2300. Two ILS approaches are published, one for runway 18 and one for runway 36. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 1,025 ft MSL here.
Beach Aviation Services is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. The airport sits in Class C airspace, so expect standard tower and approach coordination. The field also has helicopter activity close to the airport and runway. Published remarks say sightseeing helicopters operate at or below 1,200 ft and use a pad 700 ft south-southeast of the approach end of runway 36. Gulls are also noted in the area, so bird activity is part of the normal picture.
If you plan to arrive between 2300 and 0600, contact Myrtle Beach operations on CTAF 128.45 before landing. Customs service is available Monday through Friday from 0800 to 1700. Other times need prior permission. The airport has a long paved runway, so performance is usually not the limiting factor. Traffic and coordination are the bigger items here.
