15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Portland to Tucson use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 73 km short after reserves on a 1,802 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Portland International Airport has 11,000 ft and Tucson International Airport 10,996 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
