SHANK N BANK (TX0) is in La Ward, Texas. The field elevation is 29 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 5,002 ft of asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. For light piston traffic, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. The airport sits in a low coastal area. That means you should pay attention to wind and density altitude on warm days, even though the field elevation is low.
Published remarks say the airport is fenced and the gates are locked. Plan on contacting the airport manager for access. Runway end identifier lights are available on 09 and 27. PAPI is also available on both ends. Medium intensity runway lights are on 09/27 and are controlled by CTAF. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival. For clearance delivery, Houston ARTCC can be reached at 281-230-5622.
