RWY 18

Poplar Bluff Rgnl Business is in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. Field elevation is 330.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 18/36, which is 5,008 ft long. It is an untowered field, so plan to self-announce on CTAF 123.0. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

The on-field FBO is Poplar Bluff Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call (573) 686-8669 before arrival if you need current service details. Medium intensity runway lights are available on runway 18/36 from sunset to sunrise. Use CTAF to change intensity. The field also has a VASI on runway 36 and a PAPI on runway 18.

One item to watch is the runway 36 approach slope note in the Chart Supplement. Crop dusting aircraft also operate on and near the airport from March through August. For clearance delivery, Memphis ARTCC is listed in the remarks. If you are planning a night arrival or a first visit, review the current Chart Supplement and expect normal non-towered traffic flow on 123.0.
