Setting Airport Criteria
From the Nearest Airport tab, an options window allows you to filter
out airports that do not meet a defined criteria. This allows you to
only show airports with a surface type and sufficient runway length
you want.
Runway Surface —allows you to set criteria for the type of surface
on the runway:
Any —shows any runway, regardless of surface type, including
water landing facilities.
Hard Only —shows only runways with a concrete, asphalt, or
similar sealed surface.
Hard or Soft —shows all runways except water landing facilities.
Water Only
—shows only water landing facilities.
Minimum Runway Length —allows you to enter a specific length
for the shortest runway allowed.

1. Press

In an emergency, a short runway is still typically preferable
to an off-field landing. If you set the runway length too low or
exclude many runway surfaces, you may not be alerted to a
nearby airport that otherwise would be listed.
