Poetry Flying Ranch (T48) sits near Rockwall, Texas. The field elevation is 500 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts block, so verify the current field layout before you go. This is a VFR-only airport. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light-piston pattern reference unless the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator says otherwise. The published remarks also call out wildlife on and near the runway area. That is worth planning for on arrival and departure.
The remarks include obstruction notes near displaced thresholds. One note mentions a 13-foot building close to the runway environment. Another notes a shallow approach path to a displaced threshold. Treat the field as one that deserves a careful preflight review and a current look at the Chart Supplement before you launch.
No on-field FBOs are listed. If you need fuel or local handling details, contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF or UNICOM before arrival. For clearance delivery, the published contact is Fort Worth ARTCC. The facility address is in Terrell, Texas. Check the current Chart Supplement for any airspace or operational notes before flying in.
