About Monroe Regional Airport
Overview
Monroe Regional Airport serves the northeastern Louisiana region, located in the city of Monroe. As a medium-sized airport with three runways ranging from 5,000 to 7,507 feet, the airport supports diverse general aviation, commercial, and potential military operations. Situated at 79 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local metropolitan area.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly favorable VFR conditions, with nearly 70% of METAR observations reporting visual flight rules. Seasonal temperature variations are significant, ranging from -5°C to 37°C, with an average of 16.8°C. Wind conditions are generally moderate, with a prevailing southerly direction at an average of 6.7 knots, though gusts up to 40 knots have been recorded. September through November offer the most consistent VFR flying weather.
Notable Features
The airport features three paved runways with different orientations, providing flexibility for landing and takeoff under varying wind conditions. All three runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components ranging from 3.3 to 4.8 knots. Visibility is typically excellent, averaging 9.2 statute miles, with rare instances of reduced visibility (below 3SM occurring in only 2.1% of observations).
Approach Considerations
Runway selection can be optimized using the prevailing southerly winds, with Runway 04/22 offering the longest surface at 7,507 feet. Pilots should anticipate calm wind conditions approximately 30% of the time and be prepared for potential seasonal temperature extremes. The multiple runway configurations provide strategic options for approaches, with consistent wind favorability across all runway headings.
