About Morgantown Municipal Airport Walter L. (Bill) Hart Field
Overview
Morgantown Municipal Airport Walter L. (Bill) Hart Field serves the Morgantown area in West Virginia, situated at an elevation of 1,248 feet MSL. The airport provides medium-sized airport capabilities with two paved runways, supporting regional aviation needs in north-central West Virginia.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KMGW demonstrate significant variability, with 65.4% of observations reporting VFR conditions and 24.6% MVFR. Seasonal temperature ranges from -16°C to 29°C, with prevailing southwest winds at an average of 6.2 knots. September through November offer the most consistent VFR flying conditions, with optimal visibility and moderate wind patterns.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: a shorter 2,769-foot runway (05/23) and a longer 5,199-foot runway (18/36). Both runways demonstrate favorable wind alignments, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind components of 3.2 and 3.7 knots respectively. The terrain and elevation suggest a moderate mountain regional airport environment.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate predominantly southwest winds when planning arrivals and departures. Visibility averages 9 statute miles, with occasional reduced conditions including 3.7% of observations below 3SM and 2.7% experiencing fog. The longer runway (18/36) provides more flexibility for larger aircraft and potentially more challenging wind conditions.
