This medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local region, featuring a single runway 18/36 measuring 5,006 feet with an asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at KUTS demonstrate predominantly visual flight rules (VFR) operations, with 69.9% of observations under VFR and only 14.9% of time spent in marginal or instrument conditions. Temperature ranges from -3°C to 36°C, with an average of 19°C, suggesting significant seasonal variation. September through November offer the most consistent VFR flying conditions, with average visibility around 9.1 statute miles.
Notable Features
The airport's wind patterns are characterized by a southerly prevailing wind at 180 degrees, with an average speed of 6.8 knots and occasional gusts up to 21 knots. Calm wind conditions occur 14.3% of the time. The single runway (18/36) demonstrates favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and an average crosswind component of just 2.7 knots.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect relatively stable approach conditions with good wind predictability on runway 18/36. Low-visibility events are infrequent, with fog occurring only 3.2% of the time and observations below 3 statute miles happening in just 2% of reports. The consistent wind profile and long runway provide reliable approach and landing opportunities across most meteorological conditions.
