Data coverage

The static airport dataset does not yet publish these fields:

  • Fuel availability
  • FBOs
  • Facilities
  • Approaches
  • Nearby flight schools
  • Nearby DPEs

Live METAR and TAF reports are provided separately above when available. Do not treat missing airport fields as confirmation that a facility, fuel type, approach, or service is unavailable. Check current official sources before use.

Centennial Airport overview

Centennial Airport is a public-use airport serving the Denver area in Colorado. Its airport identifier is KAPA, its IATA code is APA, and the field elevation in the current source export is 5,885 ft.

The runway layout includes three asphalt runways. The longest is 17L/35R at 10,001 ft by 100 ft. The parallel 17R/35L runway is 7,001 ft by 75 ft, and 10/28 is 4,800 ft by 75 ft. Runway headings shown on this page are true headings from the source data, not magnetic runway bearings.

Using the frequency list

The current export includes Denver approach and departure, ATIS, clearance delivery, ground, tower, and UNICOM entries. Frequency assignments can change, and this page should not replace the current Chart Supplement, ATIS, or airport publication. The page preserves the source labels so a reader can distinguish an airport frequency from an approach or departure service.

Data limits

Fuel, FBOs, facilities, approaches, nearby training providers, DPEs, and weather are not asserted here because they are not present in the current generated airport dataset. A missing field is not evidence that a service is unavailable. Weather also requires a separately timestamped observation or forecast from the NOAA Aviation Weather Center.

Sources and freshness

Airport identifiers, location, elevation, runway records, and frequencies are from the OurAirports public data exports. OurAirports is a cross-check and practical bulk source described in the project's aviation data source policy. This record was refreshed on 2026-10-04. Airport data can lag temporary changes, so check current FAA publications and NOTAMs before use.
