Victoria Rgnl sits in Victoria, Texas. The field elevation is 115.1 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 13/31 at 9,111 ft. The airport is towered. The tower operates 0700-2200.
Runway 13 has the ILS approach. Published pattern altitude is not listed in the facts block. For light piston traffic, use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks also note bird activity on the field. That is worth keeping in mind on arrival and departure.
Victoria Jet Center is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Call them at (361) 578-1221 for current ramp or fuel availability. Runway lighting is worth a look before you go. Runway 18 end identifier lights are out of service. Runway 36 end identifier lights are also out of service. Runway 13/31 lights are preset low. Use CTAF if you need to raise intensity on runway 13. The airport also publishes a jet pattern altitude of 1,600 ft MSL. Turbo prop, light aircraft and rotorcraft use 1,100 ft AGL.
For night or unscheduled operations with more than nine passenger seats between 2200 and 0700, contact ARFF before arrival. If you need clearance delivery and cannot reach flight service, Houston ARTCC is the listed backup contact.
