RWY 24

Socorro Muni sits in Socorro, New Mexico. Field elevation is 4,875.2 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 5,841 ft on runway 15/33. Runway 06/24 is 4,590 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at about 5,875 ft MSL. The on-field FBO is Socorro Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL. Remarks say 100LL is available 24 hours with credit card. The field has medium intensity runway lights on both runways. PAPI is active on runways 15 and 33.

First-time pilots should pay close attention to the published brush and terrain notes. There is brush near the primary surface on runway 06/24. Runway 33 has a zero to one obstacle clearance slope at the departure end because of brush near the centerline. Runway 33 also has a drop-off near the threshold. This is a high-elevation field in central New Mexico, so expect density altitude to matter. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updated operational notes before you go.
