About General Abelardo L. Rodriguez International Airport
Overview
General Abelardo L. Rodriguez International Airport serves as a critical aviation gateway for Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. Located at coordinates 32.541043, -116.969976, the airport provides essential transportation infrastructure for the cross-border region between Mexico and the United States. As a large airport situated at 489 feet above mean sea level, it supports significant commercial and regional aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 489 ft MSL indicates a relatively low-altitude environment typical of coastal regions. Pilots should anticipate potential marine layer influences and associated visibility variations, particularly during morning and evening hours. The airport's geographical position near the Pacific coast suggests potential wind variability that could impact approach and departure procedures.
Notable Features
The primary runway 09/27 spans 9,711 feet with a concrete surface, providing substantial operational flexibility for various aircraft types. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing, particularly given the airport's proximity to complex terrain near the US-Mexico border. The runway length accommodates most commercial and regional aircraft with ample margin for safe operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 09/27's substantial length of 9,711 feet offers pilots generous landing and takeoff parameters. The concrete surface provides consistent braking characteristics across varying meteorological conditions. Pilots should assess prevailing wind directions and potential terrain-induced wind shifts when planning approaches to this coastal airport environment.
