About Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport

Overview

Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in Isfahan, Iran, at an elevation of 5,059 feet MSL. The airport features two parallel asphalt runways, each 14,425 feet long, capable of handling significant air traffic in the region. Its strategic location and substantial runway infrastructure make it an important aviation hub for central Iran.

Flying Conditions

Meteorological data indicates predominantly favorable flying conditions, with 72.9% of observations reporting VFR conditions. The airport experiences a wide temperature range from -11°C to 39°C, with an average of 10.9°C. Wind patterns are predominantly westerly at 270° with an average speed of 5.3 knots, though occasional gusts up to 39 knots can occur, with calm conditions present 19.5% of the time.

Notable Features

The airport's high elevation at 5,059 feet MSL presents considerations for aircraft performance and density altitude calculations. Both runways (07L/25R and 07R/25L) demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with consistently low average crosswind components of 3.2 knots. Visibility is typically excellent, with an average of 10 statute miles and minimal instances of reduced visibility.

Approach Considerations

October, January, and September offer the most consistent VFR conditions for pilots. With dual parallel runways oriented 07/25, the airport provides flexible approach options aligned with prevailing westerly winds. Pilots should note the minimal occurrence of challenging meteorological conditions, with only 5% IFR and 1.5% LIFR observations, suggesting generally predictable approach environments.
