About Konya Airport

Overview

Konya Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in central Turkey at an elevation of 3392 ft MSL. Situated near the city of Konya, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region with two substantial parallel runways, each measuring 10,984 ft in length. Its strategic location and robust runway configuration support diverse aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with approximately 77.8% of observations supporting clear flying weather. The airport experiences moderate wind conditions, predominantly from the north at an average of 7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 27 knots. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -12°C to 30°C, with an average of 8.9°C, suggesting potential need for seasonal operational adjustments.

Notable Features

The airport's twin parallel runways (01L/19R and 01R/19L) both offer identical favorable wind alignments and consistent crosswind characteristics of approximately 3.3 knots. Located at coordinates 37.979000, 32.561901, the airport sits in a region with relatively predictable meteorological conditions. Both runways are paved (one asphalt, one concrete), providing reliable surface conditions for aircraft operations.

Approach Considerations

September through November represent the most favorable VFR months for arrivals and departures. With consistent wind patterns from the north and excellent average visibility of 10 statute miles, pilots can expect generally stable approach conditions. The low occurrence of fog (6.9% of observations) and minimal instances of visibility restrictions below 3 miles contribute to reliable navigational predictability.
