Humboldt Muni is in Humboldt, Tennessee. The field elevation is 421.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 04/22, which is 4,003 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.
No ILS approaches are published here. 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. The on-field FBO is Humboldt Municipal Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Credit card fuel is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The pilot entrance code is 1228.
A first-time pilot should pay attention to the published remarks. Agricultural aircraft operations occur on and near the airport. Trees west of runway 04/22 rise into the transition slope, so watch your departure and arrival path on that side. For clearance delivery, Memphis ARTCC handles it by phone. This is an uncontrolled field, so keep your eyes outside and make your calls early. If you need current noise, curfew, or other local operating limits, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator before departure.
