Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport (KCXO)

Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport at a glance

Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport is a medium airport in Houston, Texas, United States, known to airline systems as CXO. The field elevation of 245 ft (75 m) is the number every arriving pilot dials against QNH — circuit heights and initial approach altitudes at KCXO are all figured from it. There is no scheduled airline service listed here — typical traffic is general aviation, training and local operations.

Of its 2 runways, the longest — 14/32 — offers 7,501 ft (2286 m) of asp surface, with runway lighting for night operations. Runway numbers give magnetic orientation: runway 14 points roughly 140° magnetic.

For the weather side of planning, the live METAR and TAF page for KCXO shows the current observation decoded line by line — wind on an instrument dial, visibility, cloud layers and the resulting flight rules — refreshed continuously from official sources.

Flight-planning notes for Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport

Density altitude is the quiet performance-killer at any field: on a hot day the 245 ft field elevation of Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport can translate into a substantially higher density altitude, stretching take-off rolls and flattening climb rates — run the numbers rather than trusting the feel of a standard day. Expect published instrument procedures, controlled airspace and clearance requirements; slots and handling may apply to general aviation traffic.

Where this data comes from

The reference layer behind this page builds on the OurAirports dataset — a public-domain, community-maintained register of the world's airports that many flight planners and apps rely on — with equity records preserved from documented historical listings where the dataset is silent. Figures are carried as published: elevations as surveyed, coordinates as filed, runway dimensions as recorded. Nothing is estimated to fill a gap, and the whole layer regenerates from source on every site build, so corrections upstream arrive here automatically.
