About Koulamoutou Mabimbi Airport

Overview

Koulamoutou Mabimbi Airport serves the Gabon region with a medium-sized airport infrastructure located at coordinates -1.184610, 12.441300. Positioned at an elevation of 1070 feet mean sea level, the airport provides essential aviation services for the Koulamoutou area, supporting regional transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 1070 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment that may experience typical equatorial climate variations. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity and temperature fluctuations characteristic of the Gabonese geographical region, which can impact aircraft performance and operational considerations.

Notable Features

The single runway 15/33 measures 5,841 feet in length and is constructed with an asphalt surface (ASP). This runway configuration provides sufficient length for medium-sized aircraft operations and offers flexibility for approaches from two primary directions based on the 15/33 orientation.

Approach Considerations

Given the runway's 15/33 orientation, pilots should be prepared to select approach directions based on prevailing wind conditions. The 5,841-foot asphalt runway provides adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft, with careful attention to elevation and potential local terrain features during approach and departure procedures.
