Located at 1864 ft mean sea level, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for a medium-sized urban area with two substantial asphalt runways. Its strategic position supports regional commercial and general aviation operations in an important manufacturing zone.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Monclova are predominantly favorable for visual flight rules (VFR), with 96.1% of observations supporting clear flying conditions. Winds typically originate from the northeast at an average of 7.8 knots, with temperature ranges between 3°C and 37°C. The most consistent VFR months are January, September, and October, offering optimal flying environments.

Notable Features

The airport features two parallel runways with similar wind characteristics, both experiencing 100% favorable wind conditions. Runway 06R/24L is the longer configuration at 6890 feet, providing substantial operational flexibility for various aircraft types. The relatively low crosswind averages of 3.6 knots on both runways contribute to predictable landing and takeoff scenarios.
