Why should the Weaverville Airport be relocated?
The present airport is 3,380 feet in length. The runway has a slope of 3.5%–the FAA maximum runway slope is 2%) The ground rises to the north of the airport so that airplanes cannot take off to the north. There are residences located to the north of the airport. The existing runway cannot be extended in either direction because State Highway 3 crosses the end of the runway to the south. The steepness of the runway precludes most light planes from landing to the south because it requires a very steep approach to get down over the trees at the end of the runway, and then the fall off the runway is steeper than the touchdown glide slope of most aircraft.
