About Newport Municipal Airport

Overview

Newport Municipal Airport serves the coastal Oregon region, situated near the Pacific Ocean in Lincoln County. Located at an elevation of 160 feet MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Newport area, offering two paved runways that support various general aviation and regional transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Newport Municipal Airport demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing 60.1% of the time. Pilots should anticipate potential marginal conditions, as MVFR and IFR conditions occur in 29.6% of observations, with prevailing southerly winds averaging 9.1 knots and temperatures ranging from 1°C to 26°C.

Notable Features

The airport features two asphalted runways: Runway 02/20 at 3,000 feet and Runway 16/34 at 5,398 feet. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with modest average crosswind components of 4.3 and 5.6 knots respectively. The coastal location suggests potential maritime weather influences and associated visibility challenges.

Approach Considerations

Visibility averages 8.6 statute miles, with occasional restrictions below 3 miles and light fog presence. January, October, and December represent the most consistent VFR months. Pilots should prepare for potential wind and visibility variations, particularly during transitional seasonal periods, and maintain awareness of the airport's coastal environmental characteristics.
