About Tuguegarao Airport

Overview

Tuguegarao Airport serves the Cagayan Valley region in northeastern Luzon, Philippines, providing critical transportation infrastructure for Tuguegarao City. Located at 17.643368, 121.733150, this medium-sized airport supports regional commercial and general aviation operations at an elevation of 70 feet mean sea level.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation at 70 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-induced weather variations, though pilots should anticipate typical tropical maritime meteorological conditions common to the Philippines. Seasonal wind patterns may significantly influence operations, particularly across the 17/35 runway orientation.

Notable Features

With a substantial 6,455-foot concrete runway (17/35), Tuguegarao Airport can accommodate medium-sized commercial aircraft and provides robust operational flexibility. The airport's geographic position in the Cagayan Valley introduces potential localized wind and visibility conditions that warrant careful preflight assessment.

Approach Considerations

Runway 17/35's significant length enables diverse aircraft approach profiles with good operational margins. Pilots should conduct thorough wind assessments given the runway's linear north-south alignment, which may expose approaches to potential crosswind components depending on prevailing meteorological conditions.

Data Sources & Accuracy: Airport information sourced from OurAirports.com, a collaborative database of worldwide airport data. Weather data from official aviation weather services including NOAA Aviation Weather Center and international METAR/TAF providers. Information is updated regularly but pilots should always verify current conditions and NOTAMs through official channels before flight operations.
