Can a Cirrus SR20 land at PHNL?

Yes -- the Cirrus SR20 typically requires ~1500 ft TOD at sea level. With PHNL's 13 ft field elevation, expect ~1502 ft. Most PHNL runways accommodate this aircraft.

What's the fuel availability at PHNL for a Cirrus SR20?

Avgas (100LL) is typically available at PHNL via FBO services. Verify current pricing on FBO websites or ForeFlight before flight.

Field Elevation

13 ft

Aircraft Range

780 NM

Cruise Speed

155 kt

Runway Requirements

The Cirrus SR20 is a single engine piston aircraft (MTOW 1,383 kg). At sea level under standard conditions, expect approximately 1,500 ft takeoff distance. Always cross-reference your specific aircraft POH performance charts and current weather for actual TOD/LDR.

→ Number of runways at PHNL: 4
→ Coordinates: 21.3187, -157.9224
→ No type rating required (single pilot)

Approach Considerations

→Approach plates: Reference current Jeppesen or FAA charts before each flight. ILS, RNAV (GPS), and visual approaches typically available depending on runway. Check NOTAMs for outages.
→Wake turbulence: Stay alert for wake turbulence from preceding heavy aircraft, especially at major airports like PHNL.

Common Considerations

Major Pacific hub in Hawaii with unique overwater operations and trade wind considerations. For the Cirrus SR20, the most relevant factors are runway length sufficiency, density altitude impact at field elevation 13 ft, and traffic complexity at this multi-runway airport.

Fuel Availability

100LL avgas is typically available at PHNL via on-field FBOs. The Cirrus SR20 burns approximately 9 gph at cruise — verify pricing through ForeFlight or AirNav before arrival.
