As a medium-sized airport with two paved runways, it supports various general aviation, commercial, and potential military operations in southeastern North Carolina.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KFAY are predominantly favorable for flying, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions present 77.9% of the time. Temperature ranges from -8°C to 34°C indicate significant seasonal variation, while the average wind speed of 7.3 knots and prevailing northerly winds create generally stable flying conditions. November, January, and October statistically offer the most consistent VFR weather.
Notable Features
Located at an elevation of 189 feet mean sea level, the airport sits in a relatively flat terrain characteristic of eastern North Carolina. Both runways (04/22 and 10/28) are asphalt-paved, with 04/22 offering a substantial 7,712-foot length and 10/28 providing a 4,801-foot option. Wind data shows 100% favorable wind alignment for both runways, which enhances operational flexibility.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect predictable wind conditions with an average crosswind of 3.6 knots for Runway 04/22 and 5.7 knots for Runway 10/28. Average visibility of 9.5 statute miles supports good visual approaches, though pilots should be prepared for occasional reduced visibility, as 1.2% of observations report fog or visibility below 3 statute miles.
