About Lelystad Airport
Overview
Lelystad Airport is a medium-sized airport located in the Netherlands, situated at an unusual negative elevation of -13 ft MSL. Positioned near the city of Lelystad in the Flevoland province, the airport serves as an important regional aviation facility with two distinct runways. Its geographic location and dual-runway configuration make it a versatile airport for various aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Lelystad Airport demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing in 51.6% of observations. Pilots can expect predominantly southerly winds averaging 9 knots, with occasional gusts up to 31 knots. Temperature ranges from -11°C to 25°C, with an average of 8°C, and September through November offer the most consistently favorable VFR conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways: a primary asphalt runway 05/23 measuring 8,858 feet, and a secondary grass runway 05L/23R of 4,495 feet. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with an average crosswind of 5 knots. The negative elevation and proximity to coastal terrain suggest potential for unique local wind and visibility characteristics.
Approach Considerations
Approach considerations should account for the airport's consistent southerly wind patterns and dual-runway configuration. Pilots can expect excellent wind alignment on both runways, with minimal crosswind challenges. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with rare instances of reduced visibility, and only 3.9% of observations reporting fog conditions.
