Richard B Russell Rgnl - J H Towers Fld is in Rome, Georgia. The field elevation is 644 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 01/19 at 7,010 ft. The airport is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.725. One ILS approach is published for runway 01.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field sits in a busy local environment. Ultralight activity is reported on and near the airport. Deer are also present on and in the vicinity of the field. Military C130 cargo drops have been reported from 1830 to 2030 on Tuesday and Thursday at the northeast end of runway 07/25. That is worth planning around if you are operating nearby.
Lighting is mixed across the field. MALSR is used for runway 01. REIL is available for runways 07, 25 and 19. PAPI is available for runways 01 and 19. Runways 07 and 25 have medium intensity lighting. Runways 01 and 19 have high intensity lighting controlled by CTAF. Floyd County Airport Commission is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. If you need clearance delivery help and cannot raise flight service, Atlanta ARTCC is listed as a backup contact. Runway 07 has a published displaced-threshold obstacle note with trees near the approach path, so brief that side carefully before arrival.
