About Mohammed V International Airport

Overview

Mohammed V International Airport serves as the primary international gateway for Casablanca, Morocco's largest city and economic center. Located at 33.367500, -7.589970 with an elevation of 656 feet MSL, this large airport provides critical international and regional connectivity for North Africa. The airport features two parallel runways, each 12,205 feet long with asphalt surfaces, capable of handling significant commercial and cargo traffic.

Flying Conditions

Casablanca's coastal location influences the airport's meteorological environment, with maritime air masses typically moderating temperature extremes. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime influence with potential visibility and wind variations, particularly during seasonal transitional periods. The airport's substantial runway length at 12,205 feet provides significant operational flexibility across various weather conditions.

Notable Features

The airport's twin parallel runways (17L/35R and 17R/35L) offer strategic operational redundancy and enhanced traffic management capabilities. Its location near the Atlantic coast presents potential wind gradient and sea breeze considerations during approach and departure phases. The 656 ft elevation provides a relatively stable atmospheric reference point for navigation and altitude calculations.

Approach Considerations

Parallel runways oriented 17/35 suggest prevailing wind patterns typically align with this runway heading. The substantial 12,205 ft runway length accommodates a wide range of aircraft types and provides generous landing and takeoff margins. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime wind influences and prepare for potential crosswind corrections during approach and landing sequences.
