Its two asphalt runways offer substantial capacity for various aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 86.2% of observations showing clear flying weather. Prevailing winds from the south at an average of 7.9 knots create generally stable atmospheric conditions. Seasonal temperature variations are significant, ranging from -6°C to 36°C, with September through November offering the most consistent VFR flying weather.
Notable Features
Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind coverage for takeoffs and landings. Runway 01/19 spans 6,596 feet, while Runway 14/32 provides 5,896 feet of paved surface, accommodating a wide range of aircraft types. The airport's geographic positioning in central Texas contributes to its relatively stable meteorological environment.
Approach Considerations
Crosswind conditions are generally mild, averaging 3.3 knots for Runway 01/19 and 4.7 knots for Runway 14/32. Visibility typically exceeds 9.6 statute miles, with minimal instances of reduced visibility (below 3SM occurring in only 1.1% of observations). Pilots can expect predictable approach conditions with low probability of fog or severe weather disruptions.
