About Pangborn Memorial Airport

Overview

Pangborn Memorial Airport serves the Wenatchee region in central Washington State, positioned at 1,249 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates 47.398899, -120.207001, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local area with two paved runways supporting various aircraft operations.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at KEAT demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing approximately 59.9% of the time. Pilots can expect moderate challenges, with Marginal VFR conditions occurring 21.6% of observations and occasional IFR/Low IFR periods. Temperature ranges from -6°C to 31°C, with an average of 6.2°C, suggesting potential for significant thermal variations.

Notable Features

The airport features two asphalt runways: Runway 07/25 measuring 4,460 feet and Runway 12/30 extending 7,000 feet. Winds predominantly originate from the west (270°) at an average of 6 knots, with maximum recorded speeds of 32 knots. Calm wind conditions occur during 25.6% of observations, providing relatively stable operational environments.

Approach Considerations

Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components (3.7 knots for 07/25 and 2.3 knots for 12/30). Visibility averages 8.6 statute miles, though pilots should anticipate occasional reduced visibility, with 3.9% of observations showing less than 3 statute miles and 7.2% experiencing fog conditions. September, October, and December historically offer the most consistent VFR conditions.
