How to read

The top lane is always the active baseline (BASE + FM). Secondary lanes stack temporary and probabilistic deviations in the order they appear in the TAF.

Perry Lefors Fld (KPPA) sits in Pampa, Texas at 3,245.2 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 17/35 at 5,862 ft. The other runway is 05/23 at 4,500 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. Pampa Aircraft is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. For fuel after hours, call the number in the Chart Supplement or the FBO directly. The airport remarks also note that runway lighting is preset to low intensity from dusk to dawn. You can increase intensity by keying the CTAF. There is no line of sight between both runway ends. Antelope are reported on and near the runway, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and landing. Clearance delivery is handled through Albuquerque ARTCC. This is a high-elevation field in open country. Expect performance to reflect the density altitude. Especially on warm Texas days.

Frequently asked questions

What is the field elevation at KPPA?
