Frequently asked questions
What runway length is available at KDIJ?
Driggs / Reed Memorial (KDIJ) has a single paved runway, 04/22, measuring 7,301 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is the same length listed as the airport's maximum paved runway length, confirming it as the only hard-surface runway serving the field. The runway supports business aviation traffic, which accounted for the large majority of the airport's annual operations in 2025. There is also a turf landing area between the runway and taxiway, but it is restricted to tailwheel aircraft with a wingspan of 49 feet or less.
Is fuel available at Driggs / Reed Memorial Airport?
Driggs / Reed Memorial Airport (KDIJ) offers both 100LL and A+ fuel, and jet fuel is confirmed available on the field. Fuel service follows the airport's attendance schedule, which runs 0800-1700 from October through May and extends to 0700-1900 from June through September. Outside these hours, no airport information or snow removal is guaranteed, according to the airport's own remarks. Pilots operating outside the posted attendance windows, particularly in winter, should plan accordingly given the lack of guaranteed support.
What customs procedures apply for international arrivals at KDIJ?
Driggs / Reed Memorial (KDIJ) has no customs facility onsite. The nearest customs airport is Bozeman Yellowstone International (KBZN), located approximately 121.97 nautical miles away. Crews arriving from abroad need to plan a customs clearance stop at KBZN or another designated port of entry before or after operating into KDIJ. Since KDIJ traffic is business-aviation heavy, flight planning for international trips should account for this added routing distance.
What winter weather challenges affect operations at KDIJ?
Driggs / Reed Memorial (KDIJ) is subject to severe winter conditions possible from November through April, according to airport remarks. Climate data supports this, showing an average of roughly 27 to 31 days per month below freezing from November through February, with December and January both averaging around 30 to 31 days below 32°F. No airport information or snow removal is guaranteed outside normal business hours, which run 0800-1700 during this period. Operators planning winter arrivals or departures should coordinate closely with the field's posted attendance schedule.
How does the PAPI system work at Driggs / Reed Memorial, and what are the landing procedures?
Driggs / Reed Memorial Airport (KDIJ) has PAPI lights on both Runway 04 and Runway 22, operating continuously per airport remarks. However, the PAPI is unusable beyond 4 nautical miles due to surrounding terrain, so pilots should not rely on it for guidance at longer final distances. REILs on Runway 04 and 22 and MIRLS on 04/22 are pilot-activated via CTAF. Standard calm-wind landing procedure at KDIJ favors Runway 04.
