Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KLCI?
Laconia Municipal Airport, identifier KLCI, has one paved runway, 08/26, measuring 5,890 feet by 100 feet with an asphalt surface. That length accommodates the business aviation traffic that makes up the bulk of operations at the field. There is no second runway, so wind conditions along the 08/26 axis matter for planning. Runway 26 is designated the calm wind runway. Pilots should note that the PAPI on the field is unusable beyond 6 degrees left of centerline.
Is Jet A fuel available at KLCI after hours?
Jet A is listed among the fuel types at Laconia Municipal Airport, but after-hours availability is not automatic. According to the field remarks, 100LL is available 24 hours with a credit card, while Jet A after normal attendance hours requires calling the FBOs directly. The airport's staffed attendance schedule runs 0700-1900 May through October and 0800-1800 November through April. Dispatchers planning Jet A uplift outside those windows should confirm arrangements with the FBOs in advance rather than assume automated access.
Does Laconia Municipal Airport have on-site customs clearance?
Laconia Municipal Airport, KLCI, does not have customs services on site. The nearest customs facility is at KMHT, located approximately 38.45 nautical miles away. Flights requiring customs clearance need to route through KMHT or another designated port of entry before or after operating at Laconia. This is a planning consideration for any international arrival that would otherwise use KLCI as a direct destination.
Are there any wingspan restrictions on taxiways at KLCI?
Yes, Taxiway A at Laconia Municipal Airport is closed to aircraft with wingspans greater than 49 feet. This restriction affects larger business jets and should be factored into ground movement planning at KLCI. Operators of aircraft exceeding that wingspan threshold need to verify an alternate taxi route or confirm access arrangements before arrival. The restriction applies specifically to Taxiway A and not to the runway itself.
What terrain or wildlife hazards are noted around KLCI?
Laconia Municipal Airport reports several cautionary remarks pilots should review before operating in the area. Wildlife is present on and in the vicinity of the airport. Locke's Hill, a 500-foot terrain feature marked with two red beacons, sits 1.2 nautical miles east of the field. Rising terrain is also noted 5,000 feet south of the airport. Additionally, a voluntary noise abatement procedure asks pilots to avoid overflying Varney Point, 1 nautical mile northeast of KLCI, with details available on the airport's website.
