About Northern Colorado Regional Airport
Overview
Northern Colorado Regional Airport serves the Loveland metropolitan area as a medium-sized airport situated at 5,016 feet mean sea level. Located at coordinates 40.449690, -105.011272, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the northern Colorado region, supporting various general aviation and regional transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with VFR weather present 87.2% of the time. Temperature ranges from -15°C to 33°C, with an average of 7.7°C, creating diverse flying conditions throughout the year. September, October, and November represent the most consistently favorable VFR months, offering optimal flying conditions for pilots.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: a shorter 06/24 runway at 2,273 feet and a longer 15/33 runway extending 8,500 feet. Wind patterns are characterized by a northerly prevailing direction at an average of 7.5 knots, with occasional gusts up to 38 knots and calm conditions 16% of the time. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, minimizing crosswind challenges for pilots.
Approach Considerations
Visibility averages 9.6 statute miles, with only 2% of observations reporting visibility below 3 statute miles. Average crosswind components are relatively modest, measuring 5.1 knots for runway 06/24 and 4.5 knots for runway 15/33. Pilots should anticipate potential instrument meteorological conditions during 12.7% of observations, primarily involving MVFR and IFR conditions.
