Frequently asked questions
What runway options are available at KWRL?
KWRL offers one paved runway, 16/34, measuring 7,000 feet by 100 feet with an asphalt surface. Two additional turf runways, 10/28 at 2,502 feet and 04/22 at 2,241 feet, are available but close seasonally from October 30 through March 30 each year. Pilots planning operations at Worland Municipal outside that window should expect only the paved runway to be usable.
Is fuel available at Worland Municipal Airport?
Worland Municipal (KWRL) offers both 100LL and Jet A fuel through a 24-hour self-serve credit card system. This allows fueling outside the airport's attended hours of Monday through Friday, 0700 to 1600 local. No additional fuel service arrangement is indicated beyond the self-serve option.
How should pilots handle clearance delivery communications at KWRL?
At Worland Municipal (KWRL), pilots needing clearance delivery who are unable to contact the facility on the FSS frequency should contact Salt Lake ARTCC instead. This backup procedure reflects the airport's non-towered status and reliance on remote communication for IFR clearance handling. No on-field air traffic control is available at KWRL.
What lighting is available for night operations at KWRL?
KWRL provides runway edge lighting (MIRL) on runway 16/34 activated via CTAF, along with REIL on both runway 16 and runway 34. A PAPI serves runway 34 on the same CTAF-activated system, while the PAPI on runway 16 operates continuously rather than on pilot activation. Wind conditions permitting, landing traffic favors runway 16.
