About Luoyang Beijiao Airport

Overview

Luoyang Beijiao Airport serves the city of Luoyang in Henan Province, China, providing regional aviation services for this historically significant area. Located at 34.741100 North, 112.388000 East, the airport operates at an elevation of 840 feet mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it supports commercial and potentially military aviation operations in central China.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation at 840 ft MSL indicates a moderate terrain environment typical of the North China Plain region. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal variations in temperature and wind conditions common to this geographical zone. The concrete runway (08/26) measuring 8,202 feet provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities for most regional aircraft types.

Notable Features

Luoyang Beijiao Airport's single runway (08/26) is oriented east-west, which can influence wind considerations during approach and departure. The concrete runway surface offers stable ground contact for aircraft operations. Its substantial length of 8,202 feet accommodates a wide range of aircraft categories and provides flexibility for different operational requirements.

Approach Considerations

The east-west runway orientation suggests potential wind alignment challenges depending on prevailing regional meteorological patterns. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and runway alignment during approach planning. The airport's moderate elevation and runway length provide relatively straightforward approach and departure conditions for most standard aircraft operations.
