Liberty Muni sits in Liberty, Texas. Field elevation is 69.5 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 16/34 is 3,801 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. If you are planning an IFR arrival, work from the current approach chart package and coordinate with Houston Approach. Published remarks note medium intensity runway lights on 16/34 that activate on CTAF. They also note an obstruction issue near runway 16. Trees sit off the right side near the departure end, so give runway 16 a careful look before you commit. The field has been surveyed by the National Geodetic Survey.
Liberty Municipal Airport is on the field and carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A Prist. It also has 24-hour self-serve 100LL fuel. For clearance delivery, Houston Approach uses 281-443-5844. For IFR cancellation, use 281-443-5888. If you are new to the airport, expect an uncontrolled field with Houston Approach frequencies in use and plan your arrival with the runway 16 obstruction note in mind.
