About Cumaná (Antonio José de Sucre) Airport

Overview

Cumaná (Antonio José de Sucre) Airport serves the eastern coastal region of Venezuela, located at coordinates 10.450333, -64.130470. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 14 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Sucre state and surrounding areas. The airport is equipped with a single runway (08/26) that measures 10,171 feet in length, constructed with asphalt surface.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation of 14 feet MSL indicates a coastal environment typical of Venezuela's northeastern shoreline. Pilots can expect maritime influenced weather patterns with potential for variable wind conditions along the runway. The asphalt runway surface provides standard friction characteristics, though local meteorological variations may impact surface conditions during different seasons.

Notable Features

Situated near the Caribbean coast, Cumaná Airport's geographic position suggests potential for marine-influenced terrain and wind patterns. The long 10,171-foot runway accommodates a wide range of aircraft types and provides substantial operational flexibility. Its proximity to coastal terrain may introduce unique atmospheric considerations for approach and departure procedures.

Approach Considerations

The runway orientation of 08/26 suggests potential crosswind scenarios depending on prevailing wind directions. Pilots should anticipate maritime atmospheric conditions that could influence approach stability and visibility. The extended runway length provides significant margin for safe operations across various aircraft categories and performance envelopes.
