Barkley Rgnl sits in Paducah, Kentucky. The field elevation is 410.4 ft MSL. It has 2 asphalt runways. The longest is runway 05/23 at 6,500 ft. The tower is open 0600 to 2300. Runway 05 has the ILS approach. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Four Rivers Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A with Prist. If you are planning a stop, that is the confirmed fuel option in the facts. The airport remarks also note that surface condition is not maintained from 0600 to 1800. Wet surface condition is not reported. That matters on a quick turn or after rain. When the tower is closed, the lighting setup includes the approach lights for runway 05, runway end identifier lights for 23 and 32, PAPI for 23 and 32, high intensity lights on 05/23, medium intensity lights on 14/32, taxiway lights and a lighted wind cone on CTAF.
For a first-time arrival, pay attention to the runway layout and the grade on 05/23. Operations are not visible from the opposite runway ends because of the grade. Clearance delivery is handled through Memphis Center. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or operational details before you go.
