About Bayreuth Airport

Overview

Bayreuth Airport (EDQD) is a medium-sized airport located in Bindlach, Germany, serving the Bayreuth region. Situated at an elevation of 1,601 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the surrounding area. Its strategic location in northeastern Bavaria supports various general aviation and regional transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation at 1,601 ft MSL suggests potential for variable atmospheric conditions typical of inland Bavarian terrain. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and density altitude variations, particularly during summer months. The airport's geographical position may create localized wind patterns that require careful preflight planning and wind assessment.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (06/24) measuring 3,550 feet long with an asphalt surface. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges during specific wind conditions. The moderate runway length accommodates smaller aircraft and provides reasonable operational flexibility for general aviation activities.

Approach Considerations

Runway 06/24's alignment indicates potential wind exposure from multiple directions. Pilots should carefully evaluate wind components during approach and landing, particularly given the airport's inland location and surrounding terrain. Standard approach procedures should account for the airport's elevation and potential localized atmospheric conditions.
