About DuBois Regional Airport

Overview

DuBois Regional Airport serves the central Pennsylvania region as a medium-sized airport located at an elevation of 1,817 feet MSL. Situated near the city of DuBois, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local community and surrounding rural areas, supporting general aviation and regional transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at KDUJ demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing 46.7% of the time and marginal VFR conditions occurring 33.6% of the year. Temperature ranges from -22°C to 27°C, with an average of 2.7°C, indicating potential challenging winter operations and temperature-related considerations for pilots. September through November offer the most consistently favorable VFR conditions.

Notable Features

The airport features a single asphalt runway (07/25) measuring 5,504 feet in length, oriented to capitalize on the predominant westerly winds. The surrounding terrain and elevation suggest potential wind shear and turbulence considerations, particularly during approach and departure phases. Prevailing winds from 270 degrees average 9.5 knots, with occasional gusts up to 32 knots.

Approach Considerations

Runway 07/25 demonstrates 100% wind favorability, with an average crosswind component of just 3.8 knots. Pilots should anticipate visibility averages of 8.2 statute miles, though 6.8% of observations indicate visibility below 3 miles and 5.3% report fog conditions. The relatively low calm wind percentage (8.8%) suggests consistent wind presence that can aid in predictable approach and landing planning.
