Kimble County Airport sits in Junction, Texas. Field elevation is 1,753.6 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 17/35 at 5,004 ft. Runway 08/26 is turf and 2,255 ft. This is an untowered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light-piston pattern reference unless local procedures or the current Chart Supplement say otherwise. The on-field FBO is Kimble County Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. Call (325) 446-2820 for current service details before you go.
A few published remarks matter here. Runway 17 is unusable beyond 5 degrees left of centerline. Runway 17/35 lighting is set to low intensity from dusk to dawn. Use CTAF to increase the lights. Runway 08 and runway 26 thresholds are marked with white tires. Frequent military training flights also make low approaches to the airport. Keep a sharp scan on arrival and departure. For clearance delivery, contact Houston ARTCC at 281-230-5622. If you are planning a night arrival or a first trip into the field, review the current Chart Supplement and brief the runway alignment carefully.
