Situated near Casper, the airport offers multiple runway options covering different wind and operational scenarios with four paved runways ranging from 6,484 to 10,164 feet in length.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KCPR are predominantly VFR, with 87.5% of observations indicating good visual flight conditions. Winds predominantly come from the southwest at an average of 12.2 knots, with temperature ranges from -25°C to 32°C. Pilots can expect favorable VFR conditions particularly in September, October, and November, with minimal periods of restricted visibility.
Notable Features
The airport's high elevation of 5,350 feet MSL presents performance considerations for aircraft, particularly during warmer temperatures. Multiple runway configurations provide flexibility for different wind conditions, with each runway offering 100% favorable wind alignment. The diverse runway lengths accommodate various aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
Crosswind variations are modest across runways, ranging from 4.4 to 10.4 knots on average. Runway 03/21, the longest at 10,164 feet, offers the most conservative crosswind conditions at 4.4 knots. Pilots should anticipate southwest wind patterns and be prepared for potential rapid weather changes typical of high-elevation mountain region airports.
