About Rahadi Osman Airport
Overview
Rahadi Osman Airport serves the Ketapang region in Indonesia, functioning as a medium-sized airport at an elevation of 46 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates -1.817165, 109.963469, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the local West Kalimantan area. Its single runway configuration supports regional aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
As a tropical airport near the equator, Rahadi Osman experiences consistent humidity and potential convective weather patterns typical of the Indonesian maritime climate. Pilots should anticipate potential thunderstorm development and reduced visibility during the wet season. The airport's relatively low elevation of 46 feet MSL suggests minimal terrain-related meteorological complications.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (17/35) with an asphalt surface measuring 4,585 feet in length. Its geographic positioning in Ketapang suggests potential coastal and forest-adjacent terrain influences that could impact local wind patterns and approach conditions. The runway orientation (17/35) indicates a north-northwest to south-southeast alignment.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17/35's length of 4,585 feet accommodates medium-sized aircraft typical of regional operations. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions given the runway's linear north-northwest to south-southeast orientation. Standard approach procedures should account for potential local meteorological variations consistent with the airport's equatorial tropical location.
