About Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport
Overview
Tri-Cities Regional Airport serves the northeastern Tennessee and southwestern Virginia region, situated in Blountville at an elevation of 1,519 feet MSL. The airport provides a critical transportation hub for the Tri-Cities metropolitan area, supporting both commercial and general aviation operations with two paved runways that offer substantial landing capabilities.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KTRI demonstrate predominantly favorable flying conditions, with 78.9% of observations reporting VFR conditions. Winds predominantly originate from the west at an average of 6.8 knots, with calm conditions occurring 48.8% of the time. Temperature ranges from -13°C to 30°C suggest significant seasonal variation, with September, October, and January offering the most consistent VFR weather.
Notable Features
The airport features two asphalt runways: Runway 05/23 at 8,030 feet and Runway 09/27 at 4,442 feet. Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind coverage and minimal average crosswind conditions (3.5kt and 3.3kt respectively). The elevated terrain at 1,519 feet MSL may require additional performance considerations for aircraft operations.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect consistently good visibility averaging 9.1 statute miles, with only 4% of observations reporting visibility below 3 miles. Fog occurs in 5.3% of observations, which is relatively low. Both runways offer flexible approach options, with Runway 05/23 providing the longer landing surface and potentially more favorable for larger aircraft.
