About Oujda Angads Airport

Overview

Oujda Angads Airport serves the northeastern Moroccan region, located in Ahl Angad near the Algerian border. As a medium-sized airport with substantial runway capacity (two 9,843ft runways), it supports regional and potentially international commercial and military aviation operations. The airport sits at an elevation of 1,535 feet above mean sea level.

Flying Conditions

The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 91.2% of observations indicating good flying weather. Prevailing winds are from the southwest at an average of 8.7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 32 knots. Temperature ranges from 0°C to 37°C, with an average of 15.9°C, suggesting potential for significant thermal variations during different seasons.

Notable Features

Both runways (06/24 and 13/31) are paved with bituminous and asphalt surfaces, providing robust infrastructure for various aircraft types. The airport's geographic position suggests potential exposure to regional wind patterns, with consistent wind conditions that support predictable flight operations. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, minimizing crosswind challenges.

Approach Considerations

September through November represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for pilots. With negligible fog occurrence (0.7%) and excellent average visibility of 10 statute miles, approaches are typically straightforward. Runway 06/24 and 13/31 both offer low average crosswind conditions (4.8kt and 6.8kt respectively), providing flexible landing options based on current wind conditions.
