Frequently asked questions
What runways are available at KMRC?
Maury County Regional operates two runways plus a helipad. Runway 06/24 is the primary paved surface, measuring 6,000 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. Runway 17/35 is a 1,941-foot turf strip, 95 feet wide, suited to lighter traffic. A small 25-by-25-foot concrete helipad, designated H1, is also listed at the field. Dispatchers planning larger business aircraft should default to Runway 06/24 given its length and paved surface.
Is fuel available at KMRC?
Yes, Maury County Regional stocks both 100LL and A+ fuel, and the airport is listed as having Jet A available as well. Fuel and field attendance follow a posted schedule of 0700 to 1700 daily, every day of the week. Outside those hours, service availability is not indicated in the airport's data. Crews planning early departures or late arrivals should confirm fueling status against this attendance window before filing. KMRC's non-towered status means fuel coordination should be worked directly with field personnel during posted hours.
Does Maury County Regional have on-site customs clearance?
No, Maury County Regional does not have on-site customs service. The nearest customs-capable airport is Nashville International (KBNA), located approximately 42 nautical miles away. Flights requiring customs clearance need to route through KBNA or another designated port of entry rather than clearing directly at KMRC. Dispatchers building international itineraries into this part of Tennessee should factor in this additional leg or coordination step. There is no towered ATC presence at KMRC itself, which is a separate consideration from the customs routing question.
What lighting is available for night operations at KMRC?
Maury County Regional provides pilot-activated lighting for Runway 24, specifically an ODALS approach lighting system and REIL runway end identifier lights, both activated via CTAF since the field is non-towered. This means arriving traffic at night or in low visibility needs to key the appropriate frequency to bring up the lighting rather than relying on continuously lit systems. There is also a lighted obstruction, a 330-foot tower, located 1.9 nautical miles southwest of the field, which is a relevant reference point for night arrivals and departures on that side of the airport.
How does business aviation traffic vary by season at KMRC?
Business aviation traffic at Maury County Regional shows a clear seasonal pattern according to FAA TFMSC data for 2025. Winter months, particularly January and February, see the lowest operation counts, while volumes climb through spring and peak in September and October. Total annual business aviation operations at KMRC reached 1,351 out of 1,781 total operations recorded for the year. Dispatchers scheduling flexible trips into the area may find quieter ramp conditions in the January-February window compared to the fall peak months.
