About Harry Reid International Airport
Overview
Harry Reid International Airport serves Las Vegas, Nevada as a major commercial airport located at 36.083361, -115.151817. Situated at an elevation of 2,181 feet MSL, this large airport is a critical transportation hub for the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The airport features four substantial runways, offering significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Las Vegas experiences significant temperature variations that can impact aircraft performance, with elevation at 2,181 feet creating density altitude considerations. The airport's multiple runway configuration (01L/19R, 01R/19L, 08L/26R, 08R/26L) allows for optimal wind management across different wind directions and speeds. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal turbulence and rapid temperature changes characteristic of the desert environment.
Notable Features
The airport's substantial runway lengths provide excellent operational capabilities, with the longest runway (08L/26R) extending 14,515 feet. These extensive runways accommodate heavy commercial traffic and provide significant margins for various aircraft classes. The airport's geographic location in a basin surrounded by mountainous terrain requires careful navigation and awareness of potential wind shear and terrain-induced turbulence.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection will primarily depend on current wind conditions, with the multiple runway configuration offering strategic options for approach and departure. The longest runway (08L/26R) provides maximum operational flexibility, particularly for larger commercial aircraft. Pilots should carefully review current meteorological conditions and utilize the airport's comprehensive runway options to ensure safe and efficient operations.
