About Kassel Airport
Overview
Kassel Airport serves the Calden region in central Germany, situated at an elevation of 820 feet MSL. The airport supports medium-sized aircraft operations with three runways, offering flexible routing and operational capabilities. Its strategic location provides aviation services to the greater Hesse region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Kassel Airport demonstrate significant visual flight rule (VFR) opportunities, with 61% of observations supporting VFR operations. Temperature ranges from -10°C to 28°C, with an average of 6.4°C, indicating potential seasonal temperature variations. Prevailing winds from the south at an average of 7.4 knots suggest generally stable atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features three distinct runways: a primary 8,202-foot asphalt runway (09/27), a secondary 4,921-foot asphalt runway (04/22), and a smaller 2,297-foot grass runway (04L/22R). All runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment and consistent average crosswind conditions of 4.7 knots. The multiple runway configuration provides operational flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and November represent the most favorable VFR months for arrivals and departures. With consistently low fog occurrence (1.3%) and excellent average visibility of 10 statute miles, pilots can expect predictable approach conditions. The airport's wind characteristics suggest minimal wind-related operational constraints, with calm conditions occurring only 2.2% of the time.
