Frequently asked questions
Is fuel available at KCXU?
Camilla-Mitchell County Airport stocks both 100LL and Jet A, listed in airport data as A+. The field is non-towered, and attendance follows a published schedule rather than continuous staffing. Coverage runs daily from 0800 to 1700, with Saturday service added from October through March. Outside those hours, fuel access depends on whatever after-hours arrangement the field supports locally. Dispatchers planning fuel stops at KCXU should confirm timing against this attendance window before scheduling an arrival.
What runway does Camilla-Mitchell County Airport offer?
Camilla-Mitchell County Airport has a single runway, 08/26, measuring 5,004 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This matches the airport's published max paved length of 5,004 feet, meaning the entire usable paved length is contained in this one strip. There is no crosswind runway, so aircraft operating at KCXU must work within the 08/26 orientation regardless of wind direction. The pavement supports business aviation traffic that makes up the majority of operations recorded at the field.
Does KCXU have customs clearance onsite?
Camilla-Mitchell County Airport does not have onsite customs processing. The nearest customs facility is at Macon (KMCN), approximately 93.72 nautical miles away. Flights requiring customs clearance need to route through that facility or another designated port of entry before or after operating at KCXU. Dispatchers should build this distance into routing plans for any international itinerary touching this airport.
When is Camilla-Mitchell County Airport traffic busiest?
Traffic at Camilla-Mitchell County Airport concentrates heavily in the winter months. January and February each recorded over 150 business aviation operations, and November logged 105, according to FAA TFMSC data for 2025. By contrast, spring and summer months like April, June, and September saw single-digit or low-teen operation counts. This pattern makes KCXU a markedly seasonal field rather than one with steady year-round activity. Dispatchers should expect higher traffic density and potential scheduling competition during the winter window.
What lighting is available at KCXU after dark?
Camilla-Mitchell County Airport provides REIL and PAPI on both Runway 08 and Runway 26, along with MIRL covering the full 08/26 runway. These systems operate from dusk until 2130. After that time, pilots must activate the lighting themselves via CTAF. This pilot-controlled lighting setup is standard for a non-towered field like KCXU and should be factored into any arrival planned after the 2130 cutoff.
