History

The overlaying of the runway was completed under the Airport Development Acceleration Act in 1973.[2] Trans-Texas Airways Douglas DC-3s stopped at Magnolia, one of many stops on a route between Dallas and Memphis from 1953-54 to 1962.

The airport covers 272 acres (110 ha) at an elevation of 319 feet (97 m). Its one runway, 18/36, is 5,008 by 100 feet (1,526 x 30 m).[1]

In the year ending June 30, 2008 the airport had 10,400 aircraft operations, average 28 per day: 96% general aviation, 2% air taxi, and 2% military. 13 aircraft were then based at the airport: 77% single-engine, 15% multi-engine and 8% helicopter.[1]
