About Lien Khuong Airport
Overview
Lien Khuong Airport serves the Da Lat region in Vietnam, operating as a medium-sized airport situated at a significant elevation of 3156 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates 11.750556, 108.366997, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the central highlands area of Vietnam. Its single runway configuration supports regional and potentially limited international air transportation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's high elevation at 3156 feet MSL introduces specific atmospheric considerations for pilots, potentially impacting aircraft performance and density altitude calculations. The single runway (09/27) measuring 10,663 feet in length provides substantial landing and takeoff capacity, with an asphalt surface supporting various aircraft types. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and altitude-related performance variations characteristic of highland airport environments.
Notable Features
Situated in a highland geographic context, Lien Khuong Airport is positioned in terrain that likely presents complex topographical interactions with local wind patterns and atmospheric conditions. The 10,663-foot runway offers significant operational flexibility, accommodating a range of aircraft sizes and operational requirements. The airport's elevated position suggests potential for variable wind conditions and potential terrain-induced meteorological complexities.
Approach Considerations
The runway's 09/27 orientation suggests potential wind-related approach considerations, with pilots needing to assess prevailing wind conditions during arrival and departure. The substantial runway length of 10,663 feet provides significant margin for safe operations, particularly given the airport's elevated terrain. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments consistent with highland airport operational protocols.
