Runway winds & crosswind
Pre-filled with runway 17/35, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17 | ~355 ft | Grass | - | - |
| 35 | ~355 ft | Grass | - | - |
No terminal forecast (TAF) is available near this field right now: some stations (especially military fields) only issue TAFs part-time.
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.
