About Las Breas Airport
Overview
Las Breas Airport serves the region around Taltal, Chile, located in a coastal desert area of northern Chile. As a medium-sized airport situated at 2580 ft mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Antofagasta Region's transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's high elevation of 2580 ft MSL means pilots should anticipate potential performance considerations during takeoff and landing, especially in warmer temperatures. The airport's desert location suggests generally clear weather conditions, but pilots should always verify current meteorological reports before flight.
Notable Features
The single runway (15/33) is 3920 feet long with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical coordinates at -25.564301, -70.375900 place the airport in a coastal desert environment with likely variable terrain and wind conditions typical of northern Chilean landscapes.
Approach Considerations
Runway 15/33 provides a linear approach path aligned approximately north-south. Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind conditions given the airport's coastal desert location, and should plan approaches considering the runway's 3920-foot length and the airport's significant elevation above sea level.
