Gillespie County Airport sits in Fredericksburg, Texas. The field elevation is 1,694.9 ft MSL. It has one runway, 14/32, which is 5,002 ft long. The airport is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. No ILS approaches are published here.

Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local guidance says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at 2,694.9 ft MSL. The runway has medium intensity edge lights that come up at low intensity by default. Use the CTAF to increase intensity.

Fredericksburg is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Fuel is available 24 hours self-serve. Full service is available during attended hours. The FBO can be reached at (830) 997-3313.

A few published remarks matter here. There is a fence near the approach to runway 14. There are also trees beyond that approach path. A tank sits southeast of the rotating beacon. Seasonal firefighting aircraft also operate here, so expect a busy ramp at times. The airport predates the Airport Compliance Act. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any local procedures or restrictions before you go. If clearance delivery is needed and ground communications are unavailable, contact Houston ARTCC.
