About Maiduguri International Airport
Overview
Maiduguri International Airport serves the northeastern Nigerian city of Maiduguri, located at coordinates 11.855300, 13.080900. As a medium-sized international airport situated at an elevation of 1099 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Borno State region. The airport supports regional and international air transportation needs for this strategically important northeastern Nigerian urban center.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 1099 feet MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment with potential for temperature and density altitude variations. Pilots should anticipate standard tropical climate conditions typical of northeastern Nigeria, characterized by significant seasonal temperature shifts. The single runway (05/23) measuring 9846 feet with an asphaltic surface provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities for medium-sized aircraft.
Notable Features
Maiduguri International Airport features a single runway oriented at 05/23 heading, which indicates the runway's alignment approximately 050 and 230 degrees. The 9846-foot asphaltic runway provides substantial length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. Given the airport's geographic location, pilots should be prepared for potential regional meteorological and terrain complexity associated with the Nigerian plateau region.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23 offers a significant 9846-foot operational length, accommodating various aircraft classes with ample margin for safe landings and departures. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations, particularly during seasonal wind pattern transitions. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and approach assessments, referencing the airport's 1099-foot mean sea level elevation when calculating performance parameters.
