About Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport
Overview
Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport serves the Palm Springs area in Southern California as a medium-sized airport positioned at an unusual below-sea-level elevation of -115 ft MSL. The airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Coachella Valley region, featuring two substantial asphalt runways capable of supporting diverse aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect exceptionally stable visual flight conditions, with VFR prevailing 96.9% of the time throughout the year. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -18°C to 41°C, with an average of 25.4°C. Wind patterns are predominantly northwestern at 315°, averaging 6.3 knots with occasional gusts up to 19 knots, and calm conditions occurring 22.9% of the time.
Notable Features
The airport's unique below-sea-level positioning creates distinctive environmental characteristics for pilots. Both runways 12/30 and 17/35 demonstrate extremely favorable wind alignments, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind conditions of 3 knots and 2.8 knots respectively. The 8,500-foot runway 17/35 provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities.
Approach Considerations
October, November, and September represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. With an average visibility of 9.8 statute miles and minimal instances of reduced visibility (only 0.4% below 3SM), approach conditions are typically very reliable. Pilots should anticipate predominantly northwestern wind influences during approach and departure procedures.
