Claxton-Evans County Airport sits in Claxton, Georgia. The field elevation is 111.5 ft MSL. It has one runway, 10/28, which is 5,151 ft long. There is no control tower, so expect non-towered traffic flow on CTAF 122.8. That is also the UNICOM frequency.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so verify the current Chart Supplement before you fly. The on-field FBO is Claxton-Evans County Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL. Call ahead at (912) 739-0124 if you need current service status.
A published remark notes a 20 to 1 slope to the displaced threshold on Runway 10. That is worth keeping in mind on short final. The lights are pilot-controlled on CTAF. Runway end identifier lights and PAPI are available for both ends. The medium intensity runway lights are preset to low intensity. After 2200, use CTAF to raise intensity and turn them on. For IFR departures, clearance delivery goes through Jacksonville ARTCC at 904-845-1592. First-time pilots should plan for a simple non-towered field with one asphalt runway. Brief the lighting and threshold note before arrival.
