About Cheikh Larbi Tébessi Airport
Overview
Cheikh Larbi Tébessi Airport is a medium-sized airport located in northeastern Algeria, positioned at coordinates 35.431599, 8.120720. Situated at an elevation of 2661 feet mean sea level, the airport serves the Tébessi region with two asphalt runways capable of handling diverse aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly excellent visual flight conditions, with 90% of observations reporting VFR conditions. Temperature ranges from -3°C to 35°C, with an average of 13.4°C, providing generally stable atmospheric conditions. Wind patterns are consistently easterly at an average of 5.8 knots, with September through November offering the most favorable flying weather.
Notable Features
The airport features two substantial runways: 11/29 measuring 9,843 feet and 12/30 measuring 7,874 feet, both constructed of asphalt. Both runways demonstrate remarkably consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind at approximately 2.3-2.4 knots. The airport's moderate elevation and geographical positioning contribute to predictable meteorological patterns.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect highly reliable visual conditions with exceptional visibility averaging 10 statute miles. The consistent easterly winds suggest minimal wind-related approach complications, with negligible instances of instrument or low-visibility conditions (less than 0.5% combined IFR/LIFR reports). The dual runway configuration provides flexibility for approaches from multiple directions while maintaining excellent wind alignment.
