About Perito Moreno Jalil Hamer Airport

Overview

Perito Moreno Jalil Hamer Airport serves the community of Perito Moreno in Argentina, situated at an elevation of 1,410 feet above mean sea level. The airport supports regional aviation needs with multiple runway configurations, offering critical transportation infrastructure in this southern Argentine region. Its strategic location provides essential connectivity for the local area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's multiple runway orientations (07/25, 10/28, and 11/29) suggest varied wind conditions typical of Patagonian terrain. Runway lengths range from 2,790 to 5,577 feet, with surfaces including gravel (GRE) and asphalt (ASP), which pilots should consider during approach and landing preparations. Altitude at 1,410 feet MSL indicates moderate elevation that may slightly impact aircraft performance.

Notable Features

Positioned at coordinates -46.537899, -70.978699, the airport is located in a region characterized by challenging Patagonian landscape. The diverse runway surfaces and multiple orientation options provide flexibility for operations under changing wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind scenarios given the airport's geographic positioning.

Approach Considerations

With three runways of varying lengths and surfaces, pilots have multiple approach options depending on wind direction and aircraft characteristics. The longest runway (10/28 at 5,577 feet) provides the most comprehensive landing option for larger aircraft. Careful attention to wind conditions and runway surface type is critical for safe operations at this medium-sized airport.
