About Kingston Norman Rogers Airport

Overview

Kingston Norman Rogers Airport serves the Kingston area in Ontario, Canada as a medium-sized airport. Located at coordinates 44.225300, -76.596901 and elevated at 305 ft MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region. It features two asphalt runways capable of supporting a variety of aircraft operations.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at CYGK demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing in 65.2% of observations. Pilots can expect western winds averaging 9.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 33 knots. Temperature ranges from -21°C to 26°C, creating diverse meteorological challenges throughout the year, with September through November offering the most consistently favorable VFR conditions.

Notable Features

The airport's dual runway configuration (01/19 at 6001ft and 07/25 at 3933ft) provides operational flexibility for different wind conditions. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignments with minimal average crosswind components around 5.9 and 5.8 knots respectively. The airport's terrain and elevation suggest a relatively straightforward approach environment.

Approach Considerations

Visibility averages 12.4 statute miles, with only 4.7% of observations showing restricted visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should anticipate predominantly westerly winds and be prepared for occasional reduced visibility, though fog is rare at only 0.4% of observations. The dual runway setup allows for consistent wind-aligned approaches regardless of prevailing wind direction.
