RWY 22

Lake Country Rgnl (W63) sits in Clarksville, Virginia. Field elevation is 420.9 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 04/22, which is 4,007 ft long. It is a non-towered field, so use CTAF 122.9 and keep your calls tight in the pattern.

Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 1,220.9 ft MSL. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan with the current Chart Supplement and your normal VFR or non-ILS IFR backup. The published remarks also matter. Runway 04 has a close-in tree obstruction on the approach side. Runway 22 has a road near the departure end. There is also a building near the threshold area. Wildlife is also reported in the vicinity, so expect extra scanning on taxi, takeoff and landing.

Self-service fuel is available on the field. No on-field FBOs are listed in the facts, so verify current services with the airport operator or by calling the field before arrival. For clearance delivery, contact Washington ARTCC at 703-771-3587. The runway headings are 28° and 208° magnetic, with 8° magnetic variation. This is a small, non-towered airport with published obstructions, so a first-time pilot should brief the approach carefully and expect local traffic to be using the common traffic advisory frequency.
