Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KUOX?
University-Oxford Airport (KUOX) has a single runway, 09/27, measuring 5,600 feet long and 100 feet wide. The surface is asphalt. This length supports most business jet traffic operating into the field. The airport is non-towered, so pilots coordinate movements over CTAF rather than with a control tower. The pavement classification is recorded as PCR value 390/F / C/X / T.
Does KUOX have Jet A fuel available?
Yes, University-Oxford Airport stocks Jet A and Jet A+ in addition to 100LL avgas. Fuel service aligns with the field's attendance schedule, which runs daily from 0700 to 1900 local time. Outside those hours, pilots should plan fuel needs in advance since staffed service is not guaranteed. KUOX supports a mix of piston and turbine traffic given this fuel lineup.
Where does KUOX traffic clear customs?
University-Oxford Airport does not have customs service onsite. The nearest customs facility is at KMEM, located approximately 45 nautical miles away. Pilots arriving from international origins need to plan a stop at KMEM or another customs-equipped airport before or after landing at KUOX. This distance should factor into routing and fuel planning for any international itinerary touching Oxford.
What lighting is available at KUOX after hours?
Runway 09/27 at University-Oxford Airport has medium intensity runway lighting (MIRL) that normally operates from dusk until 2200 local. After 2200, pilots activate the REIL on both Runway 09 and Runway 27, along with the PAPI on Runway 09 and the MIRL, using the CTAF frequency. The PAPI on Runway 27 operates continuously rather than on pilot-controlled lighting. Note also that the PAPI is unusable beyond 6 degrees left of the runway centerline.
When is business aviation traffic busiest at KUOX?
Business aviation traffic at University-Oxford Airport, according to FAA TFMSC data for 2025, concentrates heavily in the fall months. September recorded 1,616 operations, the highest of the year, followed by November at 1,402 and October at 1,040. By contrast, midsummer months like January, June, and July each saw fewer than 470 operations. Dispatchers planning trips to KUOX during September through November should anticipate higher volume than the rest of the year.
