About Bisbee Douglas International Airport
Overview
Bisbee Douglas International Airport serves the Douglas and Bisbee region in southeastern Arizona, situated at an elevation of 4,154 feet MSL. The airport features four paved runways ranging from 5,000 to 7,503 feet in length, providing flexible operational capabilities for various aircraft types. Its strategic location and multiple runway configurations support regional transportation and aviation needs in this part of Arizona.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions 94.8% of the time, with minimal periods of instrument meteorological conditions. Prevailing winds are from the east at an average of 6.6 knots, with a maximum recorded speed of 22 knots and calm conditions 25% of the time. Temperature ranges from -3°C to 30°C, with an average of 10.6°C, offering generally stable flying conditions throughout the year.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates 31.469000, -109.603996, the airport sits in a terrain characterized by the southeastern Arizona landscape. The four runways (03/21, 08/26, 12/30, and 17/35) provide multiple landing and takeoff options with consistent wind favorability. Visibility averages 9.7 statute miles, with only 0.4% of observations showing visibility below 3 miles and minimal fog occurrence.
Approach Considerations
October, December, and January represent the best VFR months for operations. All four runways demonstrate favorable wind conditions with consistently low average crosswind components between 4 and 4.6 knots. Pilots can expect reliable wind alignment and minimal crosswind challenges when selecting runways, with east-predominant winds providing predictable approach conditions.
