Overview
Loakan Airport serves Baguio City in the Philippines, positioned at a significant elevation of 4251 feet above mean sea level. As a medium airport, it provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the mountainous region of northern Luzon, supporting regional and local aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
The high-altitude location at 4251 feet MSL introduces unique atmospheric conditions that pilots must carefully consider during flight planning. Mountainous terrain surrounding the airport can generate complex wind patterns and potential turbulence, particularly during seasonal weather transitions.
Notable Features
Loakan Airport features a single concrete runway (09/27) with a substantial length of 5912 feet, capable of supporting medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographic positioning at coordinates 16.375034, 120.619949 places the airport in a challenging terrain environment typical of the Philippine Cordillera mountain range.
Approach Considerations
The runway's orientation of 09/27 suggests potential wind variations that pilots should anticipate during approach and landing. Given the airport's elevated location and surrounding mountainous landscape, precise navigation and thorough preflight weather assessment are critical for safe operations at Loakan Airport.
