Malvern Muni sits in Malvern, Arkansas. Field elevation is 538 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 04/22, which is 3,188 ft long. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at 1,538 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Runway 04/22 has medium intensity lighting that is activated on CTAF. The runway 22 end has a road and a 4-foot fence 28 ft from the threshold. The published approach ratio from the displaced threshold is 25 to 1, so plan your arrival with that in mind.
N2 Aviation Works is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL. For after-hours fuel service, the published remark gives a phone number to call. Clearance delivery is handled through Little Rock Approach or Little Rock Air Traffic Control Tower, so verify current procedures before departure. This is a non-towered field with a single asphalt runway, so keep your scan tight and expect local traffic to be working the CTAF.
