Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions 75% of the time, with Marginal VFR occurring in 11.6% of observations. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -23°C to 20°C, with an average of -0.5°C. September, October, and November represent the most favorable VFR months for operations.

Notable Features

The airport features three runways: a shorter 735-foot asphalt surface (12/30) and two longer concrete runways measuring 11,155 feet (16L/34R) and 8,235 feet (16R/34L). Its geographic location in the Kamchatka Peninsula suggests potential for complex terrain and maritime weather influences that pilots should carefully consider during flight planning.
