About Show Low Regional Airport
Overview
Show Low Regional Airport serves the Show Low area in northeastern Arizona, situated at a high elevation of 6,415 feet mean sea level. The airport offers two asphalt runways, with the longer 06/24 runway providing 7,200 feet of landing surface, supporting a variety of general aviation and regional aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly favorable Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions 91.5% of the time, with minimal occurrences of instrument meteorological conditions. The airport experiences consistent southern winds averaging 8.6 knots, with temperatures ranging from -13°C to 30°C, creating stable flying environments particularly during September, December, and October.
Notable Features
The airport's high elevation at 6,415 feet MSL requires careful performance calculations for aircraft operations. Both runways demonstrate 100% wind favorability, with Runway 06/24 experiencing slightly higher average crosswind conditions at 5.7 knots compared to Runway 03/21's 3.2 knot crosswind average. Visibility consistently remains excellent, with an average of 9.8 statute miles.
Approach Considerations
Given the prevailing southern winds, pilots should anticipate approach and landing configurations favoring Runway 06/24's longer 7,200-foot surface. The airport's consistent weather patterns, with calm conditions 21.3% of the time, provide predictable approach environments. Careful attention to density altitude considerations is recommended due to the high elevation.
