Private Aviation Briefing

KT36 is the identifier for Paul Pittman Memorial Airport, serving Tylertown at 384 ft MSL elevation. Operators, passengers, and dispatchers should note the following details for flight planning and charter operations.

U.S. General Aviation Context

Paul Pittman Memorial Airport is part of the U.S. National Airspace System, regulated by the FAA. As a MS facility, the airport contributes to the regional transportation network connecting Tylertown to the broader aviation system. FAA Part 135 charter operators serve this airport, and The Jet Finder can source aircraft positioned near KT36 for on-demand charter.

Runway Capability

Paul Pittman Memorial Airport's 3023-foot runway limits operations to piston aircraft, light turboprops, and select short-field-capable jets. The Pilatus PC-12 (2,600 ft required), Cessna Caravan, and King Air C90 are among the turbine aircraft that can use fields of this length. Charter passengers should coordinate with The Jet Finder to identify aircraft types suited to KT36's runway.

Charter Considerations

Peak travel periods affect aircraft availability and pricing near Tylertown. Holiday weekends, major events, and seasonal migration patterns drive demand. Booking 7 to 14 days ahead of peak periods secures better aircraft selection and pricing from KT36. Last-minute charter is possible but typically costs 15 to 30% more due to limited positioning options.

What to Know Before You Fly

Weather at Paul Pittman Memorial Airport affects scheduling reliability. IFR-equipped aircraft and instrument-rated crews fly in most weather conditions, but low ceilings, thunderstorms, and winter ice can delay departures. Flexible scheduling improves reliability. Morning departures generally encounter better weather than afternoon flights, particularly during convective season.

Safety & Planning

Instrument approach availability at Paul Pittman Memorial Airport determines minimum weather for arrival. Airports with ILS approaches allow lower minimums than GPS-only fields. If KT36 has limited approach options, weather alternate planning becomes critical. The Jet Finder identifies suitable alternate airports and factors this into flight planning for charter from Paul Pittman Memorial Airport.

Airport Selection Strategy

Choosing Paul Pittman Memorial Airport over a larger commercial hub near Tylertown often reduces total travel time. General aviation airports like KT36 eliminate terminal congestion, commercial airline scheduling, and the 90-minute early arrival buffer. The net time savings on a typical trip can exceed three hours each direction.

Seasonal Factors

Seasonal demand patterns affect charter availability and pricing from Paul Pittman Memorial Airport. Holiday periods (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break) see 40 to 60% price increases due to demand spikes. Summer leisure travel and winter ski season create directional imbalances that generate empty leg opportunities. Planning around these patterns saves significantly on charter from KT36.

Location & Address

Paul Pittman Memorial Airport is positioned at coordinates 31.1460° N, -90.1681° W, at 384 feet above mean sea level. Ground transportation from KT36 to Tylertown proper is typically a short drive. Private aviation eliminates the hours that commercial airport processing adds to your trip.

Runways & Facilities

The 3,023-foot runway at Paul Pittman Memorial Airport supports piston aircraft, turboprops, and very light jets (VLJs) under favorable conditions. Light jet operators should verify takeoff and landing performance against current density altitude and weight. Midsize jets typically require a longer field.

Regional Aviation Context

Mississippi's GA network connects smaller communities to regional business centers. Warm, humid conditions and Gulf moisture influence weather patterns year-round.

Operational Considerations

Paul Pittman Memorial Airport's 384-foot field elevation keeps density altitude effects manageable. Even on warm days, density altitude here tops out around 2,184 feet — within normal performance parameters for most aircraft. The 3,023-foot runway provides approximately 2,988 feet of effective sea-level performance.

Subtropical conditions at Paul Pittman Memorial Airport mean warm temperatures dominate year-round. The primary weather challenge is convective: afternoon thunderstorms build rapidly during the warm season, often reaching maturity between 14:00 and 18:00 local time. Morning departures (before 10:00 local) consistently provide the smoothest, clearest conditions. Haze and humidity can reduce visibility below VFR minimums without obvious cloud formation. The cooler months offer the most reliable flying weather.
