About Laredo International Airport
Overview
Laredo International Airport serves as a key aviation facility in southern Texas, situated near the US-Mexico border. Located at an elevation of 508 feet MSL, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the Laredo metropolitan area. The airport features three substantial runways, offering multiple approach and departure options for various aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Laredo are predominantly VFR, with 80.1% of observations showing favorable flying conditions. Prevailing winds from the southeast (135°) average 7.5 knots, with occasional gusts up to 25 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from 1°C to 38°C, with October, September, and January presenting the most consistent VFR weather patterns.
Notable Features
The airport's three runways provide strategic operational flexibility, with all three runways experiencing 100% favorable wind alignments. Runway 17L/35R offers the longest surface at 8,236 feet of concrete, while the other runways provide substantial lengths of 5,928 and 7,830 feet respectively. The airport's location suggests potential terrain and border-proximity considerations for pilots during navigation.
Approach Considerations
Crosswind conditions are generally mild, with average crosswind components between 3.4 and 4.2 knots across runways. Visibility typically exceeds 9.6 statute miles, with only 1% of observations showing visibility below 3 miles and minimal fog occurrence. Pilots should anticipate southeast winds and prepare for consistent, stable approach conditions during most operations.
