About Al Mansurah Airbase

Overview

Al Mansurah Airbase (HE32) is a medium-sized airport located in Mansoura, Egypt, positioned at coordinates 30.967600, 31.434200. The airbase sits at a modest elevation of 13 feet mean sea level, offering a relatively flat operational environment. Its infrastructure supports two significant asphalt runways capable of accommodating various military and potentially civilian aircraft operations.

Flying Conditions

Being situated in northern Egypt, Al Mansurah Airbase experiences typical Mediterranean coastal weather patterns with potential variations between summer and winter seasons. The airport's low elevation of 13 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-related atmospheric disturbances. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswinds given the two runway orientations of 14/32 and 17/35.

Notable Features

The airbase features two substantial asphalt runways: runway 14/32 measuring 9,084 feet and runway 17/35 measuring 9,047 feet. These extended runway lengths indicate the facility's capability to handle larger aircraft and potentially support diverse operational requirements. The airport's geographical position near the Nile Delta region provides a strategic location for regional aviation activities.

Approach Considerations

Runway selection will likely depend on prevailing wind conditions, with both 14/32 and 17/35 offering alternative approach options. The nearly equivalent runway lengths provide flexibility for landing and takeoff procedures. Pilots should conduct standard pre-flight wind assessments to determine the most appropriate runway for their specific aircraft and current meteorological conditions.
