Russell Muni is in Russell, Kansas. Field elevation is 1,863.5 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 5,000 ft of concrete. Runway 03/21 is 1,602 ft of turf. 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 the current Chart Supplement say otherwise. The on-field FBO is Russell Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL. Fuel is available 24 hours through self-service. The published remarks also note runway end identifier lights, PAPI and medium intensity runway lighting on 17/35. That makes the paved runway the one most pilots will want to plan for after dark or in lower visibility.
A few operational points matter here. There is no line of sight between runway ends. Runways 03 and 21 are marked with half barrels on posts painted black and yellow. For clearance delivery, if you cannot reach flight service, Kansas City Center is listed as the backup contact. Expect a non-towered field with self-announce traffic on 122.7. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or other local restrictions before flying in.
