About Aviador C. Campos Airport

Overview

Aviador C. Campos Airport serves the Chapelco and San Martin de los Andes region in Argentina, positioned at an elevation of 2569 feet mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it provides essential transportation infrastructure for the Patagonian area, supporting regional and potentially limited commercial aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

Located at coordinates -40.075401, -71.137299, the airport experiences typical Patagonian mountain weather with potential significant wind and visibility variations. The high elevation of 2569 feet MSL indicates terrain-influenced meteorological conditions that pilots must carefully evaluate during pre-flight planning and approach phases.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (06/24) measuring 8205 feet in length, constructed with an asphalt (ASP) surface. Its substantial runway length and mountain region location suggest the airport is designed to accommodate regional aircraft and potentially serve as an important transportation hub for the surrounding mountainous terrain.

Approach Considerations

Runway 06/24 orientation indicates potential crosswind challenges typical of mountain airport environments. Pilots should anticipate terrain-influenced wind patterns and prepare for potential rapid weather changes consistent with the airport's high-elevation Patagonian location. Standard mountain flying precautions and thorough pre-flight weather assessment are strongly recommended.
