About Chachapoyas Airport
Overview
Chachapoyas Airport serves the Amazonas region of Peru, situated at a high elevation of 8,333 feet MSL in a mountainous area. The medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the historical city of Chachapoyas and surrounding regions. Its single runway 13/31 offers 6,496 feet of asphalted surface for regional and domestic aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with 65.3% of observations supporting clear flying. Easterly winds averaging 6.3 knots characterize the local meteorological profile, with maximum gusts reaching 18 knots. Temperature remains moderate, ranging from 10°C to 23°C, with an average of 16.1°C, creating generally stable atmospheric conditions for flight operations.
Notable Features
Located at significant altitude in the Andean highlands, Chachapoyas Airport presents challenging terrain considerations for pilots. The high elevation of 8,333 feet impacts aircraft performance and requires careful planning for takeoff and landing weights. Surrounding mountainous geography introduces potential wind shear and turbulence factors that demand heightened situational awareness.
Approach Considerations
Runway 13/31 benefits from highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind of 3.5 knots. Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions during December, September, and October, with consistent visibility averaging 10 statute miles. Fog occurs in approximately 20.1% of observations, suggesting potential low-visibility challenges during certain periods.
