About Long Island Mac Arthur Airport
Overview
Long Island MacArthur Airport serves Suffolk County in New York, providing a critical transportation hub for Long Island's eastern regions. Located at 99 feet MSL with coordinates 40.795200, -73.100197, the airport offers four asphalt runways supporting various aviation operations. As a medium-sized airport, it provides essential infrastructure for general aviation, commercial, and regional aircraft.
Flying Conditions
Weather observations indicate predominantly favorable flying conditions, with 82.8% of recorded METARs reporting VFR conditions. Prevailing westerly winds at an average of 9.6 knots create stable approach environments. Temperature ranges from -11°C to 29°C suggest significant seasonal variation, with December, September, and November presenting the most consistently favorable VFR weather conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features four runways with substantial length variations: 06/24 at 7,006 feet, 10/28 at 5,034 feet, and two parallel runways 15L/33R and 15R/33L at 3,175 and 5,186 feet respectively. All runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind components ranging between 5.5 and 6.4 knots. This configuration provides pilots multiple landing options under varying wind conditions.
Approach Considerations
Wind data suggests a consistent westerly wind pattern, which typically favors runways oriented west-east and north-south. Visibility averages 9.4 statute miles, with only 2.2% of observations showing conditions below 3 miles and minimal fog occurrence at 1.2%. Pilots should anticipate generally stable approach conditions with multiple runway options for safe landing.
