Runway winds & crosswind
Pre-filled with runway 18/36, measured from aerial imagery — adjust it if your club flies different numbers and we'll remember your change on this device.
Current wind is calm — calm wind is not a factor for runway selection, and with no wind there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.
| Runway | Length | Surface | Head / Tail | Crosswind |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 18 | ~588 ft | Asphalt | — | — |
| 36 | ~588 ft | Asphalt | — | — |
Runway numbers are magnetic while reported winds are true north — treat components as approximate for RC field use. Are these your club's verified runway numbers? Tell us and we'll show them for every visitor.
