Frequently asked questions
What runway configuration does KTVR offer?
Vicksburg Tallulah Regional operates a single runway, 18/36, measuring 5,002 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length accommodates a wide range of business turbine aircraft without restriction. The airport has no parallel or crosswind runway, so operations depend entirely on wind alignment with the 18/36 axis. KTVR is non-towered, so pilots coordinate arrivals and departures via CTAF rather than air traffic control instructions.
Is fuel available at KTVR?
Vicksburg Tallulah Regional carries both 100LL and Jet A fuel on the field. The airport attendance schedule runs 0700-1730 daily, with reduced holiday hours of 1000-1600. Operators planning arrivals outside these windows should coordinate fuel access in advance, since staffed hours govern service availability. KTVR is a non-towered field, so fuel service coordination typically runs through the airport manager rather than a tower frequency.
How does KTVR handle customs and international arrivals?
Vicksburg Tallulah Regional has no onsite customs service. The nearest customs facility is at KJAN, located approximately 48.35 nautical miles away. Flights requiring customs clearance need to route through KJAN or another designated port of entry before or after operating at KTVR. Dispatchers planning international legs into this airport should build the customs stop into routing and timing rather than expecting service on the field.
What lighting is available at Vicksburg Tallulah Regional for night operations?
Vicksburg Tallulah Regional provides MIRL on runway 18/36, REIL on runway 18, and SSALR on runway 36. These systems are preset to low intensity from dusk to dawn. Pilots can increase intensity by keying the CTAF frequency. This setup supports night arrivals and departures at KTVR without relying on a control tower, since the airport operates as a non-towered field.
Does KTVR see seasonal traffic variation?
Vicksburg Tallulah Regional shows a concentration of business aviation operations in certain months, according to FAA TFMSC traffic data for 2025. December and September post the highest monthly counts, at 77 and 76 operations respectively, while February is the lowest at 34. Total business aviation operations for the year reached 680 out of 837 annual operations overall. This pattern is worth noting for dispatchers scheduling maintenance windows or ramp space requests at KTVR, since airport manager coordination is required for public-use ramp parking.
