Airport Overview
The airport resides at an estimated elevation of 9 feet (3 m) above sea level. It has one runway, designated 4/22 with a gravel surface measuring 6,000 by 40 feet (1,828 m x 12 m). In 1987, the airport had 1,500 air taxi aircraft operations, however today the runway is in poor condition, has not been maintained and has no scheduled flights.
The airfield is in generally fair condition and can only be used with some maintenance and clearance activities, due to vegetation inundation on the runway. There are no facilities or support infrastructure at the airfield.
