Runway 32 has fence and road obstructions near the left side. It also has a displaced-threshold approach over a road. The runway end identifier lights and medium intensity runway lights on 14/32 are controlled by CTAF.

No on-field FBOs are listed. For fuel or service, call the numbers in the Chart Supplement before you go. If you need clearance delivery, Corpus Christi Approach is listed as the contact.
