About Williamsport Regional Airport
Overview
Williamsport Regional Airport serves the north-central Pennsylvania region, located in Lycoming County near the city of Williamsport. As a medium-sized airport situated at 529 feet mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for both general aviation and regional transportation needs in a terrain-rich mountainous area.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions 70.8% of the time, with marginal VFR occurring 18.5% of observations. Temperature ranges from -17°C to 31°C, creating diverse seasonal flying environments. Prevailing westerly winds at an average of 7.6 knots with occasional gusts up to 27 knots characterize the local wind patterns, with calm conditions occurring 28.7% of the time.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates 41.242126, -76.922450, the airport features two asphalt runways: 09/27 at 6,474 feet and 12/30 at 4,280 feet. Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind coverage and minimal average crosswind conditions (2.8kt for 09/27, 3.9kt for 12/30). The surrounding terrain suggests potential for localized wind variability typical of mountainous regions.
Approach Considerations
October, November, and September represent the most consistent VFR months for operations. Visibility averages 8.9 statute miles, with only 3.1% of observations showing visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should anticipate potential reduced visibility during the 1.8% of observations with fog, particularly during seasonal transitions.
