About Qamishli Airport

Overview

Qamishli Airport serves the northeastern Syrian city of Qamishli, located near the borders of Turkey and Iraq. As a medium-sized airport situated at an elevation of 1,480 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical regional aviation infrastructure in a strategically complex geographical area. The airport supports various aviation operations in a region with significant geopolitical importance.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation at 1,480 ft MSL suggests moderate atmospheric conditions with potential for temperature and density altitude variations. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal effects and performance considerations typical of mid-elevation airports in the region. Local topography and proximity to multiple international borders may introduce complex meteorological and operational dynamics.

Notable Features

Qamishli Airport features a single runway (03/21) with a substantial length of 11,860 feet, constructed with asphalt surface. The runway's extended length provides operational flexibility for a range of aircraft types and supports potential diversionary or emergency landing scenarios. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and departure phases.

Approach Considerations

The runway's 03/21 orientation indicates potential wind alignment challenges depending on prevailing meteorological conditions. Pilots should conduct thorough pre-flight planning, carefully analyzing wind reports and local terrain influences. The extended runway length of 11,860 feet offers significant operational margin for most aircraft categories operating in this region.
