About Eurico de Aguiar Salles Airport

Overview

Eurico de Aguiar Salles Airport serves Vitória, the capital of Espírito Santo state in Brazil. As a large airport situated at 34 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the southeastern Brazilian coastal region. The airport supports commercial passenger and cargo operations with its dual runway configuration.

Flying Conditions

Located at coordinates -20.258000, -40.285000, the airport experiences typical coastal Brazilian climate conditions. Its low elevation of 34 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-related atmospheric complications for approaching aircraft. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime weather influences given the airport's proximity to the Atlantic coastline.

Notable Features

The airport features two asphalt runways with significantly different lengths: Runway 02/20 measuring 6,752 feet and Runway 06/24 measuring 5,742 feet. This dual runway configuration provides operational flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions. The substantial runway lengths accommodate a wide range of commercial and regional aircraft.

Approach Considerations

Runway 02/20, being the longer runway at 6,752 feet, likely serves as the primary runway for larger aircraft and more complex approach scenarios. The secondary Runway 06/24 provides an alternative approach option, potentially advantageous during specific wind conditions. Pilots should review current meteorological data to determine optimal runway selection based on prevailing winds and aircraft performance characteristics.
