Ralph M Hall/Rockwall Muni sits in Rockwall, Texas at 574.1 ft MSL. It has one asphalt runway, 17/35, which is 3,373 ft long. There is no control tower. Lone Star Approach handles clearance delivery and approach or departure services on the published frequencies. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light piston pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field is on CTAF 122.8. UNICOM is also 122.8.

A first-time arrival should pay attention to the published runway notes. Runway 17 has a 50-foot drop off at the approach end of pavement with steep downslope around the displaced area. Runway 17 also has trees near the approach path. Runway 35 has an 18-foot obstruction near the displaced threshold plus a road close to the runway. Several areas of runway and taxiway pavement have a lip greater than 3 inches at the edge. Low intensity runway lights on 17/35 are CTAF-activated. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying in.
