Runways at 2U8
2 runway ends on file. Longest: 2,100 ft. Max gradient: 2.48% (noticeable slope — affects performance)
| Designator | Heading | Length | Width | Surface | Lighting | Gradient |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 03 | — | 2,100 ft | 75 ft | TURF-DIRT-G | No | 2.48% |
| 21 | — | 2,100 ft | 75 ft | TURF-DIRT-G | No | 2.48% |
Source: in-app airport database (runway lengths + headings), OurAirports for surface, width, lighting. Gradient computed from FAA NASR runway-end elevation deltas (the published RWY_GRAD field is empty in 99.99% of NASR rows; we derive it from the elevations the FAA does publish).
