Conway-Horry County Airport sits in Conway, South Carolina. Field elevation is 34.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 04/22, which is 4,401 ft long. There is no control tower. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. Approach and departure services are handled by Myrtle Beach on 127.4 and 257.95. For clearance delivery, contact Myrtle Beach Approach. If approach is closed, Jacksonville ARTCC is the backup contact listed in the remarks.
Beach Aviation Services is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. Fuel is available 24 hours with credit card service. Runway 04/22 has medium intensity lights that are activated by the CTAF. That matters for night arrivals because you will need to key the lights from the pattern or approach.
This is a low-elevation coastal airport. Density altitude can still climb on hot days, so plan performance with the summer weather in mind. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or curfew restrictions before flying in.
