About Ramon International Airport

Overview

Ramon International Airport serves the southern Israeli city of Eilat, located near the country's border with Jordan. As a large airport situated at 288 ft above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Negev region and supports both civilian and potential military aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's location in southern Israel suggests a desert climate with typically clear skies and minimal precipitation. Pilots should anticipate hot temperatures and potential thermal activity, particularly during summer months, which can impact aircraft performance given the airport's elevation and regional terrain.

Notable Features

Positioned at coordinates 29.727009, 35.014116, Ramon International Airport features a single runway (01/19) with a substantial length of 11,811 feet. The airport's geographic position near multiple international borders and in a mountainous desert region requires careful navigation and awareness of surrounding terrain characteristics.

Approach Considerations

The runway's orientation of 01/19 suggests potential crosswind considerations depending on prevailing regional wind patterns. Pilots should be prepared for potential wind variations typical of desert environments and utilize the full runway length when operational conditions warrant careful approach and landing strategies.
