Dean Griffin Meml Airport (M24) sits in Wiggins, Mississippi. Field elevation is 273 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,500 ft of asphalt, so it is the runway to plan around here. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Gulfport Approach handles clearance delivery and departure services when needed. The published frequencies are 127.5 and 254.25.
No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Runway lighting on 17/35 is medium intensity and is activated by the CTAF. The PAPI on both runway ends operates continuously. Fuel is available 24 hours with a credit card. Pilots must provide tiedown ropes.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. If you need ramp or service details, contact the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival. The published remarks also note a displaced threshold issue on runway 17. The approach slope to that displaced threshold is 36 to 1. That is worth checking before you plan a short final. This is a non-towered field near the Gulf Coast, so expect to work your own spacing and watch for local traffic. For current noise or operating restrictions, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
