Valdosta Rgnl is in Valdosta, Georgia. Field elevation is 203.1 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 18/36 at 8,003 ft. Runway 04/22 is 5,598 ft. The tower is open daily from 0700 to 2200. One ILS approach is published for runway 36. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Valdosta Flying Service is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. The airport remarks also say pilots must supply their own tie-down ropes. Runway 04/22 has paved shoulders with vegetation. That is worth keeping in mind if you are planning to use that strip.
When the tower is closed, runway lighting and approach lighting for runway 36 are activated on CTAF. Lighting for runway 04/22 is also available. Medium intensity runway lights for 04/22 are unavailable after tower hours. The published remarks also note that unscheduled aircraft operations with more than 30 passenger seats need 24-hour prior permission. First-time visitors should also plan for a controlled field with active tower procedures during the day. Check the current Chart Supplement before departure for any updates to local procedures or operating limits.
