About Rafsanjan Airport
Overview
Rafsanjan Airport serves as a medium-sized airport located in southeastern Iran at an elevation of 5,298 feet MSL. Positioned near the city of Rafsanjan in Kerman Province, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential military/commercial operations in this high-altitude desert region.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly favorable visual flight conditions, with 94.3% of observations supporting VFR operations. Temperature variations are significant, ranging from -6°C to 36°C, which requires careful preflight planning and aircraft performance considerations. Wind patterns are consistently southerly at an average of 7.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 23 knots.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (11/29) extending 9,814 feet with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its high elevation at 5,298 feet MSL impacts aircraft performance, particularly during warmer months when density altitude can significantly increase. The surrounding terrain is characteristic of Iran's central plateau - generally flat with potential wind gradient effects.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29 demonstrates favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and an average crosswind of only 5.6 knots. September through November represent the most consistently stable VFR months for approaches, offering optimal visibility averaging 10 statute miles. Pilots should anticipate minimal fog interference, with less than 1% of observations reporting fog conditions.
