Dan Jones Intl (T51) sits in Houston, Texas at 166 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 3,440 ft long and surfaced with asphalt-turf. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern is left-hand. Pattern altitude is 500 ft AGL, which is 1,000 ft MSL. That is the number to brief, not a standard 1,000 ft AGL guess. The runway lighting is low-intensity and is activated by CTAF from sunset to sunrise. The airport also has a displaced threshold on runway 17 during the day. The threshold is moved 255 ft in daytime use.
Dan Jones International Airport is the on-field FBO. Fuel grades are not reported in the facts, so verify current fuel options with the FBO directly before you go. The remarks also note deer on the runways, cattle near the runway and north-south transitional aircraft west of the field. Rotor wing aircraft need prior permission. For IFR clearance delivery, contact Houston Approach. If you need to cancel IFR, use the published Houston Approach number. If you are planning a first visit, brief the displaced threshold, the animal hazard and the mixed surface runway before departure.
