Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU / KRDU) serves the Research Triangle area from Raleigh, NC. Halcyon quotes the Cirrus Vision Jet here — a single-engine jet that needs 3,192 feet of balanced field and lands in 2,346.

With 10,000 feet available, RDU presents no runway constraint for the Vision Jet in any normal condition, which makes it a dependable field for both planned departures and short-notice trips.

Field elevation is 435 feet, so performance planning here is routine and the aircraft dispatches at full useful load in ordinary conditions.
