About Omsukchan Airport

Overview

Omsukchan Airport serves the remote region of Magadan Oblast in eastern Russia, located at 62.457001°N, 155.744995°E. This medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the isolated settlements of the Magadan region, supporting regional connectivity in a challenging geographical landscape.

Flying Conditions

The airport sits at an elevation of 1,732 feet mean sea level, which introduces potential considerations for aircraft performance and density altitude variations. Given its high latitude and location in northeastern Russia, pilots should anticipate significant seasonal weather variations, with potentially challenging winter conditions typical of the region.

Notable Features

The airport is situated in a mountainous terrain characteristic of the Russian Far East, which presents complex topographical considerations for approach and departure. Its geographical position suggests potential for significant wind variability and potential turbulence related to surrounding terrain and regional meteorological patterns.
