Skyway Manor (T79) is in Pearland, Texas. Field elevation is 55 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 2,525 ft long and surfaced in turf. The airport is non-towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That works out to about 1,055 ft MSL at this field. The airport sits in a residential airpark. The manager lives on the field. That matters for arrivals and ground ops.
The published remarks are worth a close look before you go. There are displaced thresholds. The approach areas have power lines and other obstacles. The runway environment also includes buildings, fences, trees and brush in the primary surface. Runway 17/35 is soft when wet. No touch-and-go landings are allowed. If you need IFR coordination, Houston Approach handles clearance delivery. This is the kind of strip where a careful stabilized approach and a good obstacle scan matter more than usual.
