About Groningen Airport Eelde
Overview
Groningen Airport Eelde serves the northeastern Netherlands, located near the cities of Groningen and Assen. As a medium-sized airport at 17 ft MSL, it provides regional aviation services with two asphalted runways capable of handling various aircraft types. The airport's strategic location offers important transportation infrastructure for the northern Netherlands region.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect variable weather conditions, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing 48.4% of the time. Temperature ranges from -11°C to 24°C, creating diverse operational challenges throughout the year. Wind patterns are predominantly southerly at an average of 8.6 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 28 knots. September through November offer the most consistent VFR conditions for flight operations.
Notable Features
The airport features two parallel runways: 01/19 at 4,922 ft and 05/23 at 8,202 ft, both with asphalted surfaces. Both runways demonstrate consistent wind favorability, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswinds (4.8 kt and 4.4 kt respectively). Low elevation and flat surrounding terrain contribute to predictable approach characteristics.
Approach Considerations
With near-constant wind favorability, pilots can expect reliable runway selection based on current conditions. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of reduced visibility (only 6.5% fog occurrences). The airport's statistical profile suggests minimal meteorological constraints for most flight operations, with instrument meteorological conditions present approximately 28.6% of the time.
