About Ghedi Air Base
Ghedi Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the IT AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Ghedi Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in the Lombardy region of northern Italy, situated near the city of Brescia. The base serves primarily military aviation operations, positioned at an elevation of 333 feet above mean sea level. Its strategic location in the Po Valley provides an important infrastructure for Italian Air Force activities.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Ghedi exhibit significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) prevalent in 53.5% of observations. Instrument meteorological conditions occur in 31.8% of cases, with IFR and LIFR conditions combined. Temperature ranges from -6°C to 29°C, creating diverse flying environments throughout the year, with September, October, and November offering the most consistently favorable VFR conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (13/31) extending 9,813 feet, constructed with asphalt surface. Winds predominantly originate from the west (270°) at an average speed of 3.6 knots, with occasional gusts up to 19 knots. The airport experiences minimal calm wind conditions, with only 1% of observations showing no wind movement.
Approach Considerations
Runway 13/31 demonstrates optimal wind alignment, with favorable wind conditions in 100% of observations. The average crosswind is minimal at 2.4 knots, providing relatively straightforward approach and landing scenarios. Visibility typically remains excellent, averaging 10 statute miles, with fog present in only 9.8% of observations and rarely restricting operations below 3 miles visibility.
