RWY 24

Tombstone Muni is in Tombstone, Arizona. The field elevation is 4,733.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 06/24, which is 4,430 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the normal pattern reference at about 5,733 ft MSL. The airport sits in a high-desert environment, so performance will be different than at low-elevation fields. Plan for density altitude, especially on warm days.

Published remarks show brush and trees near the runway environment. There is a ditch east of the runway near the 24 threshold area. There is also brush close to both sides of the runway and within the primary surface. For clearance delivery, contact Albuquerque ARTCC at 505-856-4861. Service availability is airport manager. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and other services with the airport operator before you go. The airport gate code is 3124.
