About Taitung Airport
Overview
Taitung Airport serves the southeastern coastal region of Taiwan, located in Taitung City. As a medium-sized airport with a single runway, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation and emergency services. The airport sits at a modest elevation of 143 feet above mean sea level, facilitating access to this geographically distinct part of the island.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Taitung Airport are predominantly favorable for visual flight, with VFR conditions present 88.2% of the time. The prevailing northerly winds average 7.5 knots, with occasional gusts up to 22 knots. Temperature variation is moderate, ranging from 13°C to 34°C, with an average of 23.9°C, which generally supports stable flying conditions throughout the year.
Notable Features
The airport's 7,999-foot PEM runway (04/22) provides substantial landing space for medium-sized aircraft. Its geographical position on Taiwan's eastern coast suggests potential exposure to maritime weather patterns and potential wind variations. The airport's low elevation and coastal location likely contribute to its consistent visibility, which averages 10 statute miles with rare instances of reduced visibility.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22 demonstrates highly favorable wind alignment, with winds supporting operations 100% of the time. Crosswind components are minimal, averaging only 3.5 knots. Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions, particularly during January, October, and December, which represent the airport's most consistently clear months.
