About Rajkot Airport
Overview
Rajkot Airport serves the city of Rajkot in Gujarat, western India, functioning as a medium-sized regional airport. Located at 22.309200N, 70.779503E, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the surrounding industrial and agricultural regions of the Saurashtra peninsula.
Flying Conditions
As an airport at 441 feet mean sea level, Rajkot experiences typical western Indian climate conditions with significant seasonal temperature and wind variations. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal activity and potential crosswind conditions, particularly during transitional weather seasons.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (05/23) measuring 6,040 feet with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical position in the Saurashtra region suggests potential terrain variations and localized wind patterns that warrant careful preflight planning and situational awareness.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23's orientation suggests potential alignment with prevailing regional wind patterns, though specific wind rose data would be needed for precise determination. Pilots should prepare for potential crosswind scenarios and conduct thorough preflight assessments of current meteorological conditions prior to approach and landing.
