RWY 18

Huntsville Muni sits in Huntsville, Texas at 362.9 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 5,005 ft long and paved with asphalt. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 1,363 ft MSL based on field elevation, but verify before you fly. Huntsville Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. The on-site attendant is Wade Gilaspie.

A few operational items matter here. Runway 18/36 has medium intensity lights that default to low intensity from dusk to dawn. Use CTAF to raise the intensity and turn on the runway end identifier lights for runways 18 and 36. There are trees near the right side of runway 18. They sit close in, so plan your approach and rollout with that in mind. If you need clearance delivery and cannot raise flight service, contact Houston ARTCC at the number listed in the Chart Supplement. This is a good field to brief carefully before arrival, especially for night use or if you are new to the airport.
