About Anaco Airport

Overview

Anaco Airport serves the municipality of Anaco in northeastern Venezuela, located in Anzoátegui state. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 721 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential regional aviation connectivity for the area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's moderate elevation at 721 ft MSL suggests relatively stable atmospheric conditions typical of Venezuela's northeastern region. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations due to the airport's geographic location, which could influence aircraft performance during takeoff and landing.

Notable Features

The single runway 09/27 measures 4,134 feet long and is constructed with an asphalt (ASP) surface. Its east-west orientation allows for potential wind-aligned approaches depending on prevailing wind conditions in the region.

Approach Considerations

Runway 09/27's length of 4,134 feet requires careful performance calculations, particularly for larger aircraft or during high-temperature conditions. Pilots should conduct thorough weight and performance assessments to ensure safe operations within the available runway length.
