Runways & Approaches

Coeur d'Alene operates two grooved asphalt runways. The primary, Runway 6/24, is 7,400 ft long and 100 ft wide, served by an ILS/LOC approach to Runway 6 and RNAV (GPS) to both ends. The crosswind runway, Runway 2/20, measures 5,400 ft by 75 ft with RNAV (GPS) to Runway 2. With 7,400 ft available at a field elevation of 2,320 ft, KCOE comfortably accommodates everything from light jets through heavy iron such as the Gulfstream G650 and Bombardier Global, though crews should still run density-altitude performance numbers on hot summer afternoons.

A seasonal/temporary control tower operates daytime hours (roughly 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.) on Tower 120.125 and Ground 128.075; outside those hours the field is uncontrolled with traffic self-announcing on CTAF 122.8. The ILS to Runway 6 gives KCOE solid all-weather capability for an Inland Northwest field where winter ceilings and fog are common.

Airport Overview & Setting

Coeur d'Alene Airport – Pappy Boyington Field (KCOE/COE) is a Kootenai County public-use airport located near Hayden, about 9 miles northwest of downtown Coeur d'Alene. It is the principal private-aviation gateway to Lake Coeur d'Alene, the Coeur d'Alene Resort, and the broader Inland Northwest, drawing seasonal resort, golf, and second-home traffic alongside steady year-round general aviation.

Named for an Idaho Ace

The field was renamed in 2007 to honor Col. Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, the World War II Marine Corps flying ace and Medal of Honor recipient born in Coeur d'Alene. The airport sits at 2,320 ft MSL on roughly 1,140 acres and handles more than 40,000 operations annually.

Runway Capability

KCOE's primary Runway 6/24 is 7,400 ft of grooved asphalt, backed by an ILS to Runway 6, while the 5,400-ft Runway 2/20 adds crosswind flexibility. That length makes the field genuinely capable across the fleet — light jets, super-midsize, and heavy jets such as the Gulfstream G650 and Bombardier Global all operate here, with performance the only practical limiter on hot, high-density-altitude days.

Charter Considerations

For charter travelers, KCOE means a short transfer to the lakefront resorts, downtown Coeur d'Alene, Hayden, and the Spokane metro just across the Washington line. StanCraft Jet Center coordinates crew cars, rental delivery to the ramp, and concierge ground service. The Jet Finder sources Part 135 aircraft positioned near the Inland Northwest to minimize repositioning cost on charter quotes.

Customs & International Access

Coeur d'Alene is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection user-fee port of entry. CBP clearance is available by appointment through StanCraft Jet Center, with standard office coverage Thursday through Monday and off-hours processing subject to officer availability — useful for trips routing from Canada into the Inland Northwest.

Safety & Seasonal Planning

This is a four-season Idaho field. Winter brings snow, icing, and reduced ceilings where the Runway 6 ILS earns its keep; summer can produce afternoon density altitude near 4,100 ft and occasional convective activity. Morning departures offer the most schedule certainty. Crews should check NOTAMs for tower-hour status, since the field reverts to uncontrolled CTAF operations outside daytime tower hours.

Regional Context

KCOE complements Spokane International (GEG) about 30 miles west, but offers a far more direct, queue-free arrival for travelers bound for Lake Coeur d'Alene and North Idaho resort country. Nearby relievers include Felts Field (SFF) in Spokane, while Boise (BOI) and Seattle-area fields are common charter origins and destinations.
