Jack Barstow Airport sits in Midland, Michigan. Field elevation is 634.7 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 3,801 ft on runway 06/24. There is no control tower. Great Lakes Approach handles clearance delivery when it is open. If approach is closed, use Cleveland ARTCC per the published remarks.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so a light piston pilot should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field has one on-field FBO, Jack Barstow Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A. The published remarks also say 100LL and Jet A+ are available self-serve. Jet A+ can be arranged full service by prior coordination. Call ahead if you need hangar space or want to confirm after-hours access.

This is a field to brief carefully. Deer and large birds are reported on and near the airport. There is also occasional ultralight activity. Noise-sensitive areas are south of the airport. Runway 06/24 is the preferred runway. Runway end identifier lights, PAPI on 06 and 24 and medium intensity runway lights are published. Lighting is controlled on CTAF. Field conditions are unmonitored during the listed overnight and weekend windows. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and call the airport or FBO directly before a late arrival.
