Calbayog Airport serves Calbayog City in the Philippines, operating as a medium-sized airport located at 12.072574°N, 124.545080°E. Situated at a low elevation of 12 feet mean sea level, the airport provides critical regional transportation infrastructure for the Samar Island area. Its single runway supports essential regional and domestic aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Located in a tropical maritime environment, Calbayog Airport experiences consistent weather patterns typical of the Philippines, with potential significant variations during monsoon seasons. Pilots should anticipate potential convective activity and tropical weather systems that are common in this geographic region. The airport's low elevation of 12 feet MSL contributes to relatively stable atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single concrete runway (17/35) measuring 4,843 feet in length, which is suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical position on Samar Island presents unique terrain considerations, with potential coastal and maritime atmospheric influences. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges depending on prevailing wind conditions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17/35 provides directional flexibility for aircraft approach and departure, with the concrete surface supporting reliable operations. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions given the runway's orientation and the potential for maritime wind patterns. Standard instrument approach procedures will be critical for safe operations, particularly during periods of reduced visibility.
