About Hévíz–Balaton Airport
Overview
Hévíz–Balaton Airport serves the Lake Balaton region in western Hungary, situated near the town of Sármellék. As a medium-sized airport at 408 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the southwestern part of the country. The airport features two runways that support various aircraft operations in this scenic region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Hévíz–Balaton Airport demonstrate significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevailing 58.1% of the time. Pilots should be prepared for potential Instrument Meteorological Conditions, as IFR and LIFR conditions combine for 30.4% of observations. The temperature range spans from -17°C to 29°C, with an average of 6.5°C, indicating potential seasonal temperature challenges.
Notable Features
The airport offers two distinct runways: a concrete runway 16/34 measuring 8,202 feet, and a grass runway 17R/35L extending 3,100 feet. Wind patterns are predominantly northerly at 0 degrees, with an average speed of 6.4 knots and occasional gusts up to 23 knots. Calm wind conditions occur 10.4% of the time, providing relatively stable wind environments for most operations.
Approach Considerations
Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with an average crosswind of just 2.6 knots. September, October, and November represent the most consistent VFR months for operations. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal occurrences of restricted visibility, though fog is present in 16.7% of observations. Pilots should maintain awareness of seasonal weather variations when planning approaches.
