About Norilsk-Alykel Airport
Overview
Norilsk-Alykel Airport serves the industrial city of Norilsk in the extreme north of Russia, situated in a remote Arctic region. Located at 574 feet above mean sea level with coordinates 69.311096, 87.332199, the airport is critical infrastructure for transportation in this challenging geographical environment.
Flying Conditions
Statistical analysis reveals complex weather conditions with significant instrument flight requirements. The airport experiences diverse flight rules, with VFR conditions present 47.1% of the time, while IFR and LIFR conditions combine for nearly 38% of observations. Temperature extremes range from -43°C to 9°C, with an average of -16.7°C, presenting significant cold weather operational challenges.
Notable Features
The airport features a single concrete runway (01/19) measuring 9,255 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its high-latitude location at 69° North means extreme seasonal variations and potential challenging meteorological conditions, particularly during winter months when visibility and temperature can significantly impact flight operations.
Approach Considerations
Given the airport's Arctic location, pilots should anticipate potential low visibility scenarios, with fog present in 10.4% of observations. September, December, and October represent the most favorable VFR months, offering more predictable flying conditions. The absence of strong prevailing winds suggests relatively stable approach characteristics across the primary runway.
