About Dobbins Air Reserve Base
Overview
Dobbins Air Reserve Base (KMGE) is a medium airport located in Marietta, Georgia, situated at an elevation of 1,068 feet MSL. The base serves military and reserve aviation operations in the metropolitan Atlanta region, strategically positioned with coordinates 33.915401, -84.516296. It features two runways: a 10,000-foot concrete runway (11/29) and a 4,000-foot asphalt runway (110/290).
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Dobbins ARB are predominantly visual flight rules (VFR), with 69.5% of observations showing VFR conditions. The airport experiences moderate winds, predominantly from the west at an average of 6.5 knots, with occasional gusts up to 25 knots and calm periods 23.8% of the time. Temperature ranges from -7°C to 33°C, with an average of 13.7°C, and visibility typically excellent at 9 statute miles.
Notable Features
The airport's dual-runway configuration provides flexibility for different wind conditions. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment and minimal average crosswind of 2.8 knots. September through November represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for aviation operations, with minimal precipitation and stable atmospheric conditions.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect reliable approach conditions with only 10.4% of observations indicating instrument flight rules and a low 4.6% reporting low instrument flight rules. Visibility restrictions are minimal, with less than 3 statute miles occurring in only 0.8% of observations and fog present in just 0.8% of recorded weather events. The long 10,000-foot primary runway offers substantial landing and takeoff options.
