Frequently asked questions
Is there customs clearance at KCRX?
KCRX, Roscoe Turner Airport in Corinth, Mississippi, has no onsite customs service. The nearest customs facility is at KMEM, located approximately 68 nautical miles away. Crews arriving internationally need to plan a stop at KMEM or another customs airport before proceeding to KCRX. There is no CANPASS or similar arrangement noted for this field. Dispatchers should factor the diversion distance into routing for any international leg terminating at Corinth.
What runway does KCRX offer for business aviation traffic?
KCRX has a single paved runway, 18/36, measuring 6,500 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length accommodates the mid-size and light jet traffic that makes up most of the field's business aviation activity. Runway 18 has an activated MALSR approach lighting system, while both runway ends carry MIRL edge lighting controlled through the CTAF. There is no parallel or crosswind runway at Roscoe Turner Airport, so wind conditions on this single strip should be checked closely before planning an arrival.
What fuel is available at Roscoe Turner Airport (KCRX)?
Roscoe Turner Airport, KCRX, stocks both 100LL avgas and Jet A. Fuel is available 24 hours through a credit card service, allowing after-hours self-serve uplift without needing to coordinate with staff. The field's attendance schedule runs seven days a week from 0700 to 1700 local, but the automated fuel system extends access outside those hours. This makes KCRX a workable fuel stop for operators running schedules outside normal daytime hours. No fuel restrictions or weight-based limitations are noted in the field data.
Does KCRX have a control tower?
No, KCRX is a non-towered airport. Traffic pattern and runway lighting activation, including the MALSR on runway 18 and MIRL on runway 18/36, are managed through the common traffic advisory frequency. Pilots need to self-announce and coordinate directly with other traffic in the pattern. For clearance delivery, the remark on file directs contact to Memphis ARTCC rather than a local tower. This arrangement is typical for a field of this traffic volume, which recorded 818 total annual operations in 2025.
When is business aviation traffic busiest at KCRX?
Business aviation traffic at KCRX, Roscoe Turner Airport, is concentrated in specific months rather than spread evenly through the year. May stands out as the peak month with 92 operations recorded in 2025, well above the monthly average. February is the quietest month by comparison, with only 27 operations. Dispatchers scheduling flexible trips into Corinth may find fewer scheduling conflicts and airport activity outside the May peak. This pattern is drawn from FAA TFMSC traffic data for the field.
