Runway Info


The existing runway configuration at Chino Airport includes two parallel runways (Runway 8L-26R and Runway 8R-26L) intersected by a single runway (Runway 3-21). Runway 8R-26L, the longest runway at Chino Airport, is 7,000 feet long, 150 feet wide, and oriented in an east-west manner. Runway 8L-26R is parallel to Runway 8R-26L. The Runway 8L-26R center line and Runway 8R-26L centerline are separated by 800 feet. Runway 8L-26R is 4,838 feet long and 150 feet wide. Runway 3-21 intersects both Runway 8R-26L and Runway 8L-26R and is 4,919 feet long, 150 feet wide, and is oriented in a northeast - southwest manner. All runways are constructed of asphalt. The Runway 8R, 8L, 3, and 26L ends have paved blast pads, which reduce the potential for soil erosion from aircraft exhaust or propeller blast as takeoff power is applied. These areas are not usable for landing or departures. A pavement strength rating (load bearing capacity) is expressed in pounds according to the design of the aircraft landing gear. Single wheel loading (SWL) refers t o the design of certain aircraft landing gear which have a single wheel on each main landing gear strut. Dual wheel loading (DWL) refers to the design of certain aircraft landing gear which have two wheels on each main landing gear strut . Dual tandem wheel loading (DTWL) refers t o aircraft landing gear struts with a tandem set of dual wheels on each main landing gear strut. Runway 8R-26L ha s a pavement strength rating of 75,000 pounds SWL, 150,000 pounds DWL, and 215,000 pounds DTWL. Runway 8L-26R has a 12,000-pound SWL pavement strength rating. Runway 3-21 is rated a t 21,000 pounds SWL, and 130,000 pounds DWL.
