Lincoln Regional Airport is an airport with the ICAO code KLRG. Country: United States. Nearest settlement listed in the database: Lincoln. OurAirports classifies it as a small airport. Its ICAO code starts with the KL prefix, which marks airports in United States. No IATA code is assigned, which is typical for airports without scheduled traffic. The airport reference point sits at 45°21'44"N, 68°32'05"W, at an elevation of 208 ft (63 m) above sea level. The applicable time zone is America/New_York.

The course is derived from the runway designator (number × 10), not from a survey - the actual magnetic bearing can differ by a few degrees.
Declared distances (TORA, TODA, ASDA, LDA) are published in the national AIP - they are not part of this table.
According to OurAirports data (compiled from AIP and FAA sources), Lincoln Regional Airport has 2 runways: 06W/24W - 732 m long (2,400 ft), 30 m wide, water surface; 17/35 - 855 m long (2,804 ft), 23 m wide, asphalt surface.
The longest of them is 17/35, at 855 m.
The thresholds are oriented as follows: 06W/24W on 60° and 240° magnetic, 17/35 on 170° and 350° magnetic. A threshold designator is its magnetic heading divided by ten (ICAO Annex 14), so the runway axis can be read straight off the numbers.
For the 06W/24W axis, wind from the south-east (around 150°) or from the north-west (around 330°) blows perpendicular to the runway and produces the largest crosswind component. Wind from around 60° or 240° acts along the runway, as a headwind or a tailwind. The decoder on this page computes those components automatically from the current METAR.
Weather reports for Lincoln Regional Airport are published under the ICAO code KLRG. A METAR is an observation of current conditions, usually issued every 30 or 60 minutes; a TAF is a forecast for the airport area, typically covering 9 to 30 hours.
The decoder breaks the KLRG report down into its parts: wind direction and speed including gusts and variability, visibility (including CAVOK and directional minimum visibility), weather phenomena by WMO code, cloud layers with their bases, temperature and dew point, QNH pressure, and the resulting flight category - VFR, MVFR, IFR or LIFR - using FAA thresholds.
Not every airport issues its own reports; many smaller airfields have no weather station. If no current data is available for KLRG, check the nearby airports listed below.
Reports always use UTC (the Z suffix). The America/New_York zone is GMT-05:00 in winter and GMT-04:00 in summer - that is the shift to apply to the time in the report to get local time at the airport.
The closest airports in the database, measured in a straight line from the reference point, are Millinocket Municipal Airport (KMLT, 34 km), Dewitt Field - Old Town Municipal Airport (KOLD, 47 km), Bangor International Airport (KBGR, 66 km). When no report is available for KLRG, they usually give the best approximation of conditions in the area.
