The single runway 03/21 provides a substantial 10,499-foot asphalt surface, offering considerable operational flexibility for various aircraft types. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing, which pilots should assess during pre-flight planning. The runway's length accommodates most commercial and regional aircraft operating in the region.
Approach Considerations
Approach strategies should consider the runway's 03/21 orientation and potential wind conditions at the 24 ft MSL elevation. The extensive 10,499-foot runway length provides significant margin for landing and takeoff performance across different aircraft categories.
