Weed Airport's 5,000 ft of runway is shorter than most of the 152 jet-capable fields in California, and its 2,938 ft elevation adds noticeably to the runway a jet needs in summer. 8 of the 24 types we broker clear it; the runway rules out 16. The nearest city we publish corridors for is Napa, 226 miles away.

From-prices are one way and all-in — operator price, our fee and federal excise tax — for the smallest cabin suited to the distance, indicative rather than quoted. Short legs price at an operator's daily minimum, which is why several start at the same figure.
Runway
What can operate here
Compared against the published balanced field length of every type we broker, with roughly 3% added per 1,000 ft of elevation for density altitude.
This is runway length only. Individual airports also restrict by wingspan, noise curfew, slot availability and special approach certification, and performance moves with temperature, weight and the day. Clearing the runway here means an aircraft is worth asking about — the operator confirms it, and signs for it.
