About Arkansas International Airport

Overview

Arkansas International Airport is located in Blytheville, serving as a medium-sized airport situated at 254 feet above mean sea level. Its strategic location in northeastern Arkansas provides an important aviation infrastructure point for regional operations, with coordinates positioning it at 35.964298, -89.944000.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 254 feet suggests a relatively flat terrain environment typical of the Mississippi River valley region. Pilots can expect moderate atmospheric conditions with potential seasonal variations common to mid-southern United States geography.

Notable Features

The primary runway 18/36 offers an extensive 11,602-foot pavement with electrical marking (PEM), providing substantial operational flexibility for various aircraft types. Its considerable length supports diverse aviation activities, from commercial to potential military or cargo operations.

Approach Considerations

With a single runway oriented in a north-south configuration (18/36), pilots should anticipate standard approach procedures aligned with this orientation. The extensive runway length allows for comfortable approach and landing margins across different aircraft performance envelopes.
