About Eagle County Regional Airport
Overview
Eagle County Regional Airport serves the mountain resort region of Colorado, located in the town of Eagle at a high elevation of 6,548 feet MSL. Situated in a mountainous area, the airport provides critical transportation access to the Vail and Beaver Creek ski regions, supporting both commercial and general aviation operations with two asphalted runways.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 89.1% of observations showing clear flying weather. Temperature ranges widely from -18°C to 29°C, with an average of 4.1°C, creating significant density altitude considerations for pilots. Wind patterns are predominantly easterly at an average of 6.7 knots, with occasional strong gusts up to 38 knots and calm conditions occurring 35.5% of the time.
Notable Features
High elevation and mountainous terrain define the airport's operational environment, requiring careful aircraft performance planning. Both runways (07/25 and 08/26) offer favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind (2.9kt and 2.6kt respectively). The airport's geographic location presents potential challenges related to mountain weather patterns and rapid atmospheric changes.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate excellent runway wind conditions, with both primary runways showing 100% favorable wind alignment. The longer Runway 07/25 at 9,000 feet provides substantial landing and takeoff options. October, November, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months, though pilots should always verify current conditions given the mountainous environment.
