About Hof-Plauen Airport
Overview
Hof-Plauen Airport serves the southeastern German region of Bavaria, located near the border of the Czech Republic. Situated at an elevation of 1,959 feet MSL, this medium-sized airport provides important regional aviation infrastructure for the Hof area. The airport supports various general aviation and potentially commercial operations in this part of Germany.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Hof-Plauen demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions occurring 42.1% of the time. Instrument meteorological conditions (IFR, MVFR, LIFR) collectively represent 57.9% of observations, indicating the need for pilots to be prepared for potential instrument flight. Seasonal temperature ranges from -12°C to 26°C, with a mild average of 3.6°C, suggest pilots should be equipped for diverse thermal conditions.
Notable Features
The single runway 08/26 is 4,856 feet long with an asphalt surface, accommodating a range of aircraft types. Prevailing winds from the southwest (225°) average 7.2 knots, with occasional gusts up to 23 knots. The airport experiences calm wind conditions only 2.3% of the time, which is relatively infrequent and suggests consistent wind activity.
Approach Considerations
Runway 08/26 offers favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of just 4.9 knots. Pilots can expect the most consistent VFR conditions during September, October, and November. The low frequency of visibility restrictions (fog at 2.6%, no observations below 3SM) generally supports stable approach and landing conditions.
