I am flying to Hot Springs (KHOT) on Monday. I see that runway 05/23 is closed. Has anyone flown there recently? Just curious as I have never landed on 13/31, and it doesn’t have an instrument approach.

I’ve flown in there on the ILS and RNAV 05 and circled to land on 31. 31 has rising terrain and looks high but np in taking off. I usually do a downwind departure to the southwest if taking off 31. VX climb then VY to traffic pattern…

13 is right traffic btw…

I was there a couple of months ago. Runway 5 was open then. 
 

If it’s IFR it looks like the circle to land option is going to be the only option. Weather looks a bit sketchy for Monday.

I can understand why 13 is right traffic as the mountain is rising quickly to the east.

When I was there, runway 5 was open, I landed on it. Taxiways A and E were closed so I departed on 23, no traffic or wind. Rwy 5-23 was in great shape when I was there. No idea why it is closed.

I just looked it up, they are building a larger GA parking ramp and redoing taxiways A and E. I imagine the runway is closed for the taxiway work.

Flew in today. The ILS is down, so I had to fly the RNAV 5 circle to land 31. Broke out 900ish so it wasn’t too sketchy.
