About Karlovy Vary Airport
Overview
Karlovy Vary Airport serves the spa city of Karlovy Vary in the Czech Republic, situated at an elevation of 1,989 feet MSL. The airport features two runways: a primary asphalt runway (11/29) of 7,054 feet and a secondary grass runway (12/30) of 2,624 feet. It is classified as a medium airport and supports various aviation operations in the region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Karlovy Vary Airport demonstrate significant variability, with VFR conditions occurring 41.8% of the time. Pilots can expect a prevailing westerly wind at an average of 5.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 19 knots. Temperature ranges from -15°C to 28°C, and fog is present in 16.1% of observations, which may impact visibility during certain periods.
Notable Features
The airport's dual-runway configuration provides operational flexibility, with both runways showing 100% favorable wind alignment. The terrain surrounding Karlovy Vary Airport likely presents typical Central European landscape characteristics, with potential terrain variations that pilots should consider during approach and departure. The airport's location suggests potential for terrain-induced wind patterns and localized weather phenomena.
Approach Considerations
September through November offer the most consistently favorable VFR conditions for operations. Both runways experience minimal crosswind, with average crosswind components of 2.8 knots for runway 11/29 and 3.2 knots for runway 12/30. Pilots should prepare for potential visibility restrictions and be aware of the airport's elevation when planning approaches.
