Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KLWB?
Greenbrier Valley Airport, identifier KLWB, has a single runway, 04/22, measuring 7,003 feet long and 150 feet wide. The surface is asphalt, and the pavement carries a PCR value of 360/F / D/X / T. This length supports a range of business jet types operating into the airport without runway-limited weight restrictions under normal conditions. KLWB is towered, with control tower operations noted in the airport's lighting and frequency remarks. Dispatchers planning into KLWB have a single strip to work with, so runway condition and lighting status are the primary variables to check before arrival.
Is Jet A fuel available at KLWB?
Yes, Greenbrier Valley Airport (KLWB) stocks both Jet A and 100LL fuel. The field operates on an ALL / ALL / ALL attendance schedule, meaning fuel and field attendance are not limited to specific days or hours. This makes KLWB usable for jet traffic year-round without needing to coordinate around a reduced service calendar. No fuel supplier is specified in the airport data, so pilots should confirm delivery logistics directly with field personnel. The combination of long pavement and dual fuel types supports both piston and turbine operations at this field.
Does KLWB have on-site customs clearance?
No, Greenbrier Valley Airport (KLWB) does not have customs service on site. The nearest customs facility is at KCRW, located approximately 64.37 nautical miles away. Operators arriving from international origins need to route their customs clearance through KCRW or another designated port before or after landing at KLWB. This distance should be factored into fuel and routing plans for any international itinerary touching Greenbrier Valley. Since the airport data lists no on-site customs type, crews should not assume any clearance capability exists at the field itself.
When is business aviation traffic busiest at KLWB?
Business aviation traffic at Greenbrier Valley Airport (KLWB) concentrates heavily in the fall months, according to FAA TFMSC data for 2025. October is the peak month with 594 operations, followed by September at 489 and July at 456. Winter months are markedly quieter, with February recording only 182 operations and January 202. This seasonal pattern means dispatchers should expect denser traffic and potentially tighter scheduling windows at KLWB from late summer through October. Planning around these peak months is advisable for operators seeking more flexible slot availability.
What lighting is available at KLWB for night or low-visibility operations?
Greenbrier Valley Airport, KLWB, provides several lighting aids for approach and runway guidance. Runway 04 has an ALSF-type approach light system activated as MALSR, while Runway 22 is equipped with REIL and a PAPI visual glideslope indicator. High-intensity runway lighting, HIRL, covers the full 04/22 runway. Taxiway lighting is also available, controlled via CTAF. When the tower is closed, pilots use CTAF frequency 118.9, and note that frequency 121.5 is not available at the tower.
