Operational notes
Airport operated FBO, no third party FBO on the field. Sits on a 1,000 ft mesa with rising terrain in all quadrants and strong vertical turbulence near the mesa edge. Runway is protected by Engineered Materials Arresting System beds, 292 ft by 122 ft, at both ends. Airport closed 2100 to 0600 local, and no night instrument approaches are currently authorized. Winds and safety permitting, land runway 09 and take off from runway 27; instrument departures are not authorized from runway 09. Attended 0700 to 2100 April through October and 0700 to 1800 November through March; the services desk is open 0700 to 1900 (0700 to 1800 October 1 through June 14) and after-hours service needs 8 hours notice. Air carrier operations during unattended hours must notify airport customer service 24 hours in advance so ARFF staffing can be arranged. No snow removal at night. Landing, overnight and hangar fees are set per aircraft type; no ramp, handling or security fees (tellurideairport.com and FAA Chart Supplement, September 2026).
Aircraft classes that fit this runway
This compares each aircraft's published takeoff distance against KTEX's longest runway only. It does not account for this field's 9,070 ft elevation, temperature, or terrain, all of which cut into real performance at density altitude, and several of these are mountain fields where that gap matters. Treat this as a starting point for a conversation with us, never as clearance to fly here.
Takeoff distances are published under differing conditions and are not directly comparable between types. Confirm against the operator and the AFM for a specific aircraft, weight, and day.
