Orange County Airport sits in Orange, Texas. Field elevation is 13.2 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 5,500 ft on runway 04/22. This is a non-towered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
The on-field FBO is Orange County Airport. It carries 100LL and Jet A with Prist. Call (409) 882-7861 before you go if you need current ramp or fuel details. The published remarks matter here. Runway 13/31 is closed indefinitely. It is also listed as rough with deep ruts, so plan on using runway 04/22. Trees are noted as obstacles near the surface of runway 13/31. Runway 04/22 has medium intensity lights that default to low intensity. Use the CTAF to increase intensity and turn on the runway end identifier lights.
This is a low-elevation field, so density altitude is usually less of a factor than at higher airports. Still, check the current weather and runway condition before departure. For IFR work, Houston Approach handles clearance delivery and IFR cancel calls. If you need current operational details, verify with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone.
