CAIN (T28) sits in Slidell, Texas at 917 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 1,200 ft long and turf. The field is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement or airport manager says otherwise. The runway is rough in spots and some sections have gravel. Call ahead before you go. The published remarks also say only short takeoff and landing aircraft operations are recommended. That is a good clue on what this strip is built for.
Terrain matters here. There is rising ground east of the runway. The terrain is rolling. The runway ends are not visible from the opposite end. Deer and feral hogs are reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on taxi and on final. A letter of agreement is in place with Bishop Airport (76T) and Decatur Municipal (LUD) for compatible traffic pattern operations. For clearance delivery, contact Lone Star Approach at 972-615-2799. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify services with the airport manager before arrival.
