Medford Muni is in Medford, Oklahoma. The field elevation is 1,092 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,007 ft long with an asphalt surface. That is the longest runway on the field.
This is an untowered airport. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Published approach frequencies include Vance Approach on 118.075 and 273.475. No ILS approaches are published, so plan with current VFR or other available procedures in mind. The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless current local guidance says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 2,092 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation.
A 100-foot refinery sits about 1 NM southwest of the airport. That is worth keeping in mind on departure and arrival. The runway lights on 17/35 are medium intensity and are activated by the CTAF from dusk to dawn. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or the field on CTAF before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Vance Approach. If Vance Approach is closed, use Kansas City ARTCC. The airport has also been surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey.
