About Sri Sathya Sai Airport

Overview

Sri Sathya Sai Airport serves the Puttaparthi region in southern India, providing medium-level airport services for the local area. Located at coordinates 14.149300, 77.791100, the airport sits at an elevation of 1,558 feet above mean sea level, offering strategic connectivity for the surrounding Karnataka region.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 1,558 feet MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment with potential for variable atmospheric conditions typical of inland southern Indian locations. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal activities and localized wind variations due to the airport's geographic positioning.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (09/27) with an asphalt surface measuring 7,315 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical coordinates indicate placement in a relatively flat terrain region, which generally supports stable approach and departure conditions.

Approach Considerations

Runway 09/27's substantial 7,315-foot length provides flexibility for most medium-sized aircraft approaches and departures. Given the runway's orientation, pilots should assess prevailing wind conditions and be prepared to adjust approach strategies accordingly, utilizing the full runway length when necessary.
