About Dutchess County Airport
Overview
Dutchess County Airport serves the Poughkeepsie region in New York, situated at an elevation of 165 feet MSL. The airport provides a medium-sized facility with three runways supporting various general aviation and regional aviation needs. Its strategic location and multiple runway configurations offer flexibility for pilots operating in the Hudson Valley region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Dutchess County Airport demonstrate predominantly favorable VFR flying conditions, with 74.5% of observations reporting VFR status. Pilots can expect prevailing westerly winds averaging 7.3 knots, with temperature ranges from -18°C to 29°C. November, September, and October historically present the most stable VFR flying conditions, making these months optimal for general aviation operations.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with varying surface types: Runway 06/24 is asphalt (5,001 ft), Runway 07/25 is grass (1,358 ft), and Runway 15/33 is pavement (2,743 ft). All runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind coverage, with modest average crosswind components ranging from 4 to 5.2 knots. Calm wind conditions occur in 41.2% of observations, providing consistent operational flexibility.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection can be effectively managed using prevailing westerly winds, with Runway 06/24 offering the longest paved surface at 5,001 feet. Visibility averages 9.2 statute miles, with only 4.4% of observations reporting visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should anticipate potential reduced visibility during the 2% of observations with fog conditions, particularly during seasonal transitions.
