About Trombetas Airport

Overview

Trombetas Airport serves the municipality of Oriximiná in the state of Pará, Brazil. Located at coordinates -1.489600, -56.396801, the airport provides essential transportation infrastructure in a remote region of the Amazon basin. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 167 feet MSL, it supports regional connectivity and potentially serves local industrial or extractive operations in the area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's location near the equator suggests consistent tropical weather patterns with potential for high humidity and frequent precipitation. Pilots should anticipate potential thunderstorm development and rapid weather changes typical of Amazonian regions. The airport's moderate elevation at 167 ft MSL indicates relatively stable atmospheric conditions with minimal altitude-related performance considerations.

Notable Features

Trombetas Airport features a single asphalt runway (9/27) with a substantial length of 5,249 feet, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. The surrounding terrain is characteristic of the Amazon rainforest, which may present challenges related to visibility, vegetation, and potential localized weather phenomena. Pilots should be prepared for potential limited navigational infrastructure in this remote region.

Approach Considerations

The runway's orientation of 9/27 suggests potential wind alignment variations that pilots must assess during approach and landing. With the runway's considerable length of 5,249 feet, most medium-sized aircraft should have adequate operational space. Pilots should conduct thorough pre-flight planning, considering the airport's remote location and potential limited support services.
