About Necochea Airport

Overview

Necochea Airport serves the coastal city of Necochea in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Located at coordinates -38.490746, -58.816337, this medium-sized airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the region, situated at an elevation of 72 feet above mean sea level.

Flying Conditions

The airport features three runways with varying surface types and lengths, providing flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions. Runway surfaces include green earth (GRE) for two runways and asphalt (ASP) for the longest runway, with lengths ranging from 2,621 feet to 4,921 feet, which can accommodate a variety of general aviation and regional aircraft.

Notable Features

Situated near the Atlantic coast, Necochea Airport's geographic location may present unique meteorological challenges typical of maritime environments. The airport's multiple runway configurations (13/31, 17/35, and 18/36) offer pilots options for takeoff and landing depending on wind direction and aircraft performance requirements.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should carefully evaluate runway selection based on aircraft characteristics and current wind conditions, with three runway options available. The longest runway (18/36 at 4,921 feet with asphalt surface) likely provides the most versatile option for larger aircraft and more demanding approach scenarios.
