About West Woodward Airport
Overview
West Woodward Airport serves the Woodward region in the United States, situated at an elevation of 2,189 feet MSL. The airport features three runways accommodating various aircraft operations, with runway lengths ranging from 2,501 to 5,502 feet. Its strategic location and multiple runway configurations make it a versatile medium-sized airport for regional aviation activities.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions 90.7% of the time, with minimal periods of restricted visibility. The prevailing southwest winds average 9 knots, with occasional gusts up to 30 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -16°C to 33°C, which pilots should consider for performance planning and aircraft operations.
Notable Features
The airport's three runways (05/23, 12/30, and 17/35) offer multiple approach options with consistent wind favorability across all surfaces. Geographic positioning suggests a relatively flat terrain typical of the region, with all runways experiencing minimal crosswind interference. Each runway maintains an average crosswind component between 4.6 and 6.8 knots.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection can be confidently determined by current wind conditions, with all runways demonstrating 100% wind favorability. January, September, and December represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. Pilots should anticipate calm wind conditions approximately 6.7% of the time and prepare for potential wind variability during approach and landing.
