Situated at an elevation of 535 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local area and regional transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 535 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment with potentially variable wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate standard Mediterranean climate patterns typical to northern Algeria, which can include temperature variations and potential crosswind scenarios on the primary runway.

Notable Features

The single runway (06/24) measures 5,833 feet in length and is constructed with an asphalt surface. Its orientation suggests potential wind alignment challenges, with east-west runway heading that may experience crosswind components depending on prevailing meteorological conditions.

Approach Considerations

Runway 06/24 provides a standard approach environment with 5,833 feet of available landing surface. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and velocity when selecting runway direction, considering potential crosswind components inherent to the runway's east-west orientation.
