Frequently asked questions
What runways are available at KRQO?
El Reno Regional Airport offers two runways: 17/35, a 5,600-foot concrete surface at 75 feet wide, and 18/36, a 4,017-foot turf strip at 190 feet wide. The concrete runway is the primary paved option for jet and turboprop traffic at KRQO. The turf runway's unusual width makes it suitable for a broader range of light aircraft operations.
Is fuel available at El Reno Regional Airport around the clock?
Fuel at KRQO, including 100LL and Jet A, is available on a 24-hour basis using a credit card, with full-service fueling also offered. The airport's staffed attendance schedule runs 0800 to 1700 on weekdays and 0900 to 1600 on weekends. Pilots relying on full service outside those hours should plan around self-service credit card fueling instead.
Does KRQO have on-site customs clearance?
El Reno Regional Airport does not have on-site customs. The nearest customs facility is at Oklahoma City Wiley Post or Will Rogers area airports, specifically Will Rogers World Airport (KOKC), located approximately 20.38 nautical miles away. Operators arriving from international origins need to route their clearance through that facility rather than KRQO directly.
What lighting is available for night operations at KRQO?
KRQO provides pilot-controlled REIL on runways 17 and 35 along with MIRL on runway 17/35, both activated via CTAF. PAPI is installed on both runway 17 and runway 35 and operates continuously rather than on pilot activation. This combination supports night and low-visibility approaches to the airport's primary paved runway.
