About Achinsk Airport
Overview
Achinsk Airport is a medium-sized airport located in the Krasnoyarsk Krai region of Russia, situated at coordinates 56.269185, 90.575110. Positioned at an elevation of 1033 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves the local transportation needs of the Achinsk area, supporting regional connectivity and potentially industrial or resource-sector operations typical of the Siberian region.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 1033 ft MSL suggests a mid-altitude environment with potential for variable meteorological conditions characteristic of the Siberian climate. Pilots should anticipate significant seasonal temperature variations that could impact aircraft performance, particularly during winter months when extreme cold is common in this geographic region.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (08/26) with a substantial length of 8038 feet, constructed of concrete (CON) surface. Its orientation suggests the runway is aligned approximately west-southwest to east-northeast, which would typically help manage prevailing wind conditions in the region and provide flexibility for aircraft operations.
Approach Considerations
Given the runway's significant length of 8038 feet, the airport can accommodate a range of aircraft types and provides ample landing and takeoff distance. The concrete surface and orientation (08/26) indicate good potential for handling diverse aircraft during various wind conditions, though local terrain and specific wind patterns would need further detailed assessment by pilots preparing for operations.
