Riverside Municipal Airport covers 525 acres (212 ha) and has two runways and one helipad:

  • Runway 9/27: 5,400 x 100 ft. (1,646 x 30 m), Surface: Asphalt
  • Runway 16/34: 2,850 x 48 ft. (869 x 15 m), Surface: Asphalt
  • Helipad H1: 60 x 60 ft. (18 x 18 m), Surface: Asphalt

Riverside Airport's full service runways feature ILS, GPS, and VOR approaches for all-weather arrivals and departures.

The main runway, RWY 9-27, accommodates Gulfstream V, Dassault Falcon 50, Bombardier Challenger, Cessna Citation X and similar business-class aircraft. Should there be plans to expand, the Airport's current Master Plan supports lengthening this runway to 6,153 feet (1,875 m). Runway 27 is also served by a Visual Approach Slope Indicator.

The crosswind runway, RWY 16-34, is suited for cabin-class aircraft and smaller in crosswind conditions from the north. Runway 34 is also served by a Precision Approach Path Indicator.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:

    I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
