Marlin Airport (T15) sits in Marlin, Texas. The field elevation is 410.7 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 3,021 ft long with asphalt pavement. There is no control tower. No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a day VFR only airport. There are no lights, so plan for daylight arrival and departure only. The published remarks also note that the windsock may be unreliable because of nearby trees and a mast that is not vertical. That matters here because the field also has obstructions near both runway ends. Runway 17 has a 20-foot tree near the approach area. Runway 35 has 8-foot fences close to the runway on the right side.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival if you need local services. For clearance delivery, Fort Worth ARTCC is listed in the remarks. The airport is surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey. Pilots should also verify current airspace and any local procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before flying in.
