New Castle Henry County Marlatt Fld is in New Castle, Indiana. The field elevation is 1,090.2 ft MSL. KUWL has one runway, 10/28, which is 4,201 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. For IFR work, clearance delivery is handled through Indianapolis Approach. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.05. The airport uses medium intensity runway lights on 10/28. They are controlled by CTAF. The runway end identifier lights and PAPI are installed on both ends. The runway lights are preset to low intensity. Ask for more intensity on CTAF if needed.
Sky Castle Aviation is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. After-hours fuel is available by phone. The airport manager’s number is also published for coordination. This is a non-towered field, so expect self-announce traffic and pay close attention to the pattern. If you are new to the airport, verify current runway lighting use, traffic flow and any local procedures with the current FAA Chart Supplement or the airport operator before you go.
