We don't fly over homes to the East of the airport unless the weather requires it. It is safest to land into the wind, allowing pilots to fly with slower ground speeds and stop more quickly. This means that the ONLY time we will fly over homes located to the east of our runway is on days when the wind is blowing hard from the West for landing or East for takeoff.
Pilots landing at the Enumclaw Airport have been trained and are proficient in landing on short & narrow runways. There are very specific instructions and procedures that were reviewed prior to receiving permission to use this airport. Because of our Private status, we maintain strict standards for the pilots that are allowed to land here
We maintain (2) high visibility windsocks and an advisory weather station to indicate safest landing direction.
