Marion Municipal (KMNN) has two paved asphalt runways. Runway 07/25 is the longer strip at 5,000 feet by 100 feet wide, while runway 13/31 measures 3,498 feet by 100 feet wide. Neither runway is served by an operating control tower, so pilots coordinate on CTAF. Both runways carry lighting that pilots activate themselves via CTAF.
Marion Municipal (KMNN) offers 100LL on a self-serve basis around the clock via credit card. Jet A is also available after hours, but only with prior arrangement made in advance. During the posted attendance schedule of 0800-1700 daily, both fuel types can be handled through normal service. Pilots planning an after-hours Jet A uplift should arrange it ahead of arrival.
Marion Municipal (KMNN) does not have customs service on site. The nearest customs facility is at Columbus (KCMH), located about 38 nautical miles away. Since KMNN is a US airport, this distance matters mainly for flights arriving from Canada or Mexico that need to clear before or after landing here. Crews should plan their customs stop at KCMH accordingly.
Marion Municipal (KMNN) reports occasional deer, birds, and other wildlife on and in the vicinity of the airport, so pilots should stay alert during approach and departure. There is also a close-in obstruction: crops rising 3 feet above ground level sit 200 feet from the runway extended centerline to the threshold, offset 55 feet right and 245 feet left. Glider activity also occurs on and in the vicinity of the field, announced on CTAF.
