RWY 17

KPQL is Trent Lott Intl in Pascagoula, Mississippi. The field elevation is 16.8 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35 and the longest runway is 6,501 ft of asphalt. The airport is towered. Tower hours are Monday through Friday 0600-2000. Weekend hours are Saturday and Sunday 0800-1800. One ILS approach is published for runway 17. 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.

Southern Sky Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call 228-474-1000 for current service details. The published remarks also note MALSR on runway 17. PAPI is on runway 35. Medium intensity runway lights are on both ends. They are controlled by CTAF when the tower is closed. ARFF is available 24 hours. One operational item to keep in mind is the shoreline traffic. Numerous low-flying fish spotter aircraft work the coast between Bay St Louis and Pascagoula from sunrise to sunset. That makes a good lookout scan important on arrival and departure. The airport is in the Gulf Coast area. Expect a low-elevation coastal environment rather than terrain issues. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updated procedures before you go.
