About Francisco Bangoy International Airport

Overview

Francisco Bangoy International Airport serves as the primary aviation gateway for Davao City, located in the southern Philippines. Situated at 7.125520°N, 125.646004°E, this large airport provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the Mindanao region. The airport's elevation of 96 feet above mean sea level positions it in a relatively low-lying coastal area.

Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect tropical maritime weather conditions typical of the southern Philippines, with potential for significant convective activity and periodic precipitation. The airport's coastal location may introduce variable wind conditions, particularly during seasonal transition periods. Wind patterns can be expected to interact with the runway's 05/23 orientation, which spans 9,842 feet of asphalt pavement.

Notable Features

The airport's substantial runway length of 9,842 feet accommodates a wide range of aircraft types, from regional turboprops to larger international aircraft. Its geographic position near the Davao Gulf suggests potential for maritime-influenced meteorological conditions and localized wind shear. The surrounding terrain likely includes a mix of urban and coastal landscapes that could impact local atmospheric dynamics.

Approach Considerations

Approach considerations should account for the airport's single runway configuration and coastal environment. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind components given the runway's 05/23 orientation. Standard instrument approach procedures will be influenced by the airport's relatively low elevation and proximity to maritime terrain features.
