About Zanjan Airport
Overview
Zanjan Airport serves the city of Zanjan in northwestern Iran, situated at a substantial elevation of 5382 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport with a single runway 12/30 measuring 9840 feet in length, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly favorable VFR conditions, with 94.3% of observations indicating good visual flight rules. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -18°C to 33°C, with an average of 11.1°C. Wind patterns are consistently from the southeast at an average of 7.3 knots, with occasional gusts up to 43 knots.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates 36.773701, 48.359402, Zanjan Airport is positioned in a terrain that presents potential wind and elevation challenges for pilots. The airport's high elevation and southeastern wind patterns require careful planning and awareness of potential mechanical turbulence and density altitude effects during approach and departure.
Approach Considerations
Runway 12/30 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with a 100% favorable wind coverage. Average crosswind components are relatively mild at 4.2 knots. Pilots should note the most stable VFR conditions occur during autumn months, particularly in September, October, and November, which offer the most predictable flying weather.
