About Jorhat Airport

Overview

Jorhat Airport serves the Jorhat district in Assam, northeastern India, functioning as a medium-sized airport at 311 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides critical regional connectivity in a geographically challenging terrain near the Brahmaputra Valley, supporting both civilian and potential military aviation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's location in northeastern India suggests significant seasonal weather variations, with potential monsoon influences during summer months. Pilots should anticipate potential reduced visibility and precipitation periods, particularly between June and September, which could impact flight operations on the 9000-foot concrete runway.

Notable Features

Situated at coordinates 26.730456, 94.175416, Jorhat Airport is positioned in a region characterized by complex terrain with proximity to mountainous landscapes. The single runway (04/22) provides a substantial 9000-foot length, offering favorable operational capabilities for medium-sized aircraft across diverse meteorological conditions.

Approach Considerations

The runway orientation of 04/22 suggests potential wind alignment challenges depending on prevailing regional wind patterns. Pilots should carefully assess current meteorological data and utilize the full runway length, considering the elevation of 311 feet MSL and potential terrain-induced wind variations in the approach corridors.
