About Oradea International Airport
Overview
Oradea International Airport (LROD) serves the western Romanian city of Oradea, positioned at an elevation of 465 ft MSL. The airport supports medium-sized aviation operations with a single runway 01/19 measuring 6,890 feet in length. Its strategic location in Bihor County provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at LROD demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) predominating at 63.6% of observations. Pilots can expect easterly winds averaging 6.4 knots, with occasional stronger gusts up to 23 knots. Temperature ranges from -16°C to 31°C, creating diverse operational challenges throughout the year, with September, October, and November offering the most consistently favorable flying conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's runway 01/19 experiences highly favorable wind conditions, with wind alignment at 100% and minimal average crosswind of 3.2 knots. Visibility typically remains excellent, averaging 10 statute miles, with fog present in only 8.2% of observations. The airport's moderate elevation and consistent wind patterns contribute to relatively stable approach and departure environments.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate predominantly VFR conditions but prepare for potential Marginal VFR (MVFR) scenarios in 15.8% of observations. Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) and Low IFR conditions occur in approximately 20.6% of cases, necessitating comprehensive preflight weather briefings. The consistent easterly wind makes runway 01/19 particularly amenable to most approach and departure scenarios.
