As a large airport with significant infrastructure, it handles regional and national air traffic, situated at an elevation of 1,213 feet above mean sea level.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 1,213 ft MSL suggests potential for variable wind conditions and temperature-related performance considerations for aircraft. Being located in northwestern Spain, the airport likely experiences maritime influenced weather patterns with potential for rapid atmospheric changes.
Notable Features
The single runway 17/35 measuring 10,499 feet provides substantial operational flexibility for different aircraft types and weights. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios, with a north-south alignment that can interact with regional topographical and coastal meteorological influences.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate potential wind variations given the airport's geographic location and substantial runway length. The runway's extended asphalt surface provides good landing and takeoff capabilities, with orientation allowing for multiple approach strategies depending on prevailing wind conditions.
