Bollinger-Crass Meml (MO5) sits in Van Buren, Missouri. The field elevation is 652 ft MSL. It has one runway, 02/20, which is 2,600 ft long and asphalt. This is an unattended field with no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current traffic pattern in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go. The published remarks matter here. Runway 02 has brush, trees, tall weeds and rising ground near the departure end. Runway 20 also has brush and trees close to the end. The runway safety area is not standard along the sides of the runway and beyond the Runway 20 end. There are drop-offs, terrain changes, brush and trees in the area. Deer and other wildlife are also reported on and near the airport.

The segmented circle and wind cone are in poor condition. Runway markings on both ends are severely faded. The beacon is reported to be on continuously. No on-field FBOs are listed, so plan on self-sufficiency and verify services with the airport operator before arrival. For clearance delivery, the published contact is Memphis ARTCC. This is a small field in a rural area. A careful look at the runway environment and a current briefing are smart before you launch.
