About Baker City Municipal Airport
Overview
Baker City Municipal Airport serves eastern Oregon's Baker County, situated at 3373 feet mean sea level near the city of Baker City. The airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region, featuring three asphalt runways ranging from 3999 to 5095 feet in length. Its strategic location and multiple runway configurations support diverse general aviation and regional transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly favorable visual flight rules (VFR) conditions, with 73.3% of observations supporting VFR operations. Wind patterns are consistently southeast at an average of 7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 28 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -9°C to 29°C, which can impact aircraft performance and necessitate careful preflight planning.
Notable Features
The airport's elevation at 3373 feet MSL places it in a higher terrain environment typical of eastern Oregon's landscape. Three parallel runways (08/26, 13/31, and 17/35) provide operational flexibility, with all runways demonstrating 100% favorable wind alignment and relatively modest average crosswind conditions between 3.4 and 4.8 knots. Visibility averages 9.1 statute miles, with minimal restrictions.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and December represent the most consistent VFR months for operations. With low occurrence of instrument meteorological conditions (IFR/LIFR at 12.8% combined), pilots can generally expect reliable visual approach opportunities. The multiple runway configuration allows for optimal wind-aligned approaches, with calm conditions present in 32.4% of observations.
