Avenger Fld sits in Sweetwater, Texas. Field elevation is 2,379.7 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 17/35 at 5,840 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Approach and departure support is listed on 127.2 and 282.3 through Abilene. No ILS approaches are published, so plan with the current chart and your own weather minimums in mind.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field sits in west Texas, so density altitude can matter on warm days. That is worth planning for at this elevation. The published remarks also say aircraft on 04/22 and 17/35 are not visible from the opposite end of the runway. That makes good position reports more important than usual. There is also a 15-foot gravel road near runway 22, 199 feet out and 236 feet left of the centerline. Watch that side of the field on final.
Sweetwater Municipal Airport is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. 100LL is available 24 hours self-serve. For clearance delivery, Fort Worth ARTCC is listed at 817-858-7584. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go for any changes or local procedures.
