About Sub Teniente Nestor Arias Airport

Overview

Sub Teniente Nestor Arias Airport serves the San Felipe region in Venezuela, situated at an elevation of 761 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the local area, supporting regional transportation and operational needs. The airport's strategic location is marked by precise coordinates of 10.278700, -68.755203.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 761 ft MSL indicates a moderate terrain environment that can influence aircraft performance and approach characteristics. Pilots should anticipate standard atmospheric conditions typical of the Venezuelan coastal region, with potential variations in temperature and wind patterns. The single asphalt runway (05/23) measuring 4,921 feet provides adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft operations.

Notable Features

San Felipe's airport is characterized by its single runway oriented at 05/23, which suggests potential wind alignment considerations for pilots. The asphalt surface provides standard ground handling capabilities for aircraft compatible with its 4,921-foot length. Geographic positioning near the Venezuelan coast likely introduces maritime meteorological influences that could affect local flying conditions.

Approach Considerations

Runway 05/23 offers pilots a straightforward approach profile with standard orientation. Given the runway's moderate length, aircraft performance planning should account for the 4,921-foot available distance. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments during pre-flight planning, paying particular attention to potential crosswind components during approach and landing.
