About Kebri Dahar Airport

Overview

Kebri Dahar Airport serves the eastern Ethiopian region, situated at an elevation of 1800 ft above mean sea level. Located at coordinates 6.732577, 44.241339, this medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure in a remote area of Ethiopia. The airport supports regional connectivity and potentially serves local administrative, commercial, and humanitarian logistics needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation at 1800 ft MSL suggests a moderate altitude environment with potential for temperature and density altitude variations. Given its location in eastern Ethiopia, pilots can expect generally arid conditions with potential for significant daytime temperature fluctuations. Winds along the 08/26 runway axis may create crosswind challenges during certain seasons.

Notable Features

The single concrete runway measuring 8202 feet provides substantial landing and takeoff capacity for medium-sized aircraft. Its substantial length allows operational flexibility for various aircraft types operating in this regional environment. The airport's geographical position in eastern Ethiopia suggests potential terrain complexity in surrounding areas that pilots should survey carefully during preflight planning.

Approach Considerations

Runway 08/26 offers a substantial 8202-foot concrete surface, providing good operational capabilities for approach and landing. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind conditions given the runway's orientation and the region's typical wind patterns. Standard approach procedures will be critical given the airport's location in a potentially challenging geographical context.
