Ennis Municipal does not have an onsite customs facility. The nearest customs point of entry is KDAL, located approximately 32 nautical miles away. Flight crews arriving from international origins need to route their customs clearance through that airport rather than F41 itself. Dispatchers should factor this distance into ground transportation or repositioning plans.
Ennis Municipal offers both 100LL and Jet A fuel, both dispensed on a self-serve basis. There is no attended fuel service, so crews should plan for card or self-service procedures rather than line service. Fuel availability aligns with the field's general attendance schedule of weekdays from 0800 to 1700.
Ennis Municipal has a single asphalt runway, 16/34, measuring 4,012 feet long and 50 feet wide. The runway surface is noted as having cracking and loose stones, which may affect braking action or tire wear assessments. Pilots should account for this single-runway layout when evaluating crosswind alternatives.
Yes, Ennis Municipal has documented close-in obstructions on approach. Rising ground of up to 5 feet is present within 199 feet of the runway, 88 feet to the left, and brush up to 20 feet high sits within 130 feet on the approach course. An additional approach slope of 25:1 clears brush of 15 feet at 382 feet distance to the displaced threshold, so crews should review these figures before planning approach minimums.
