Located at coordinates 7.126500, -73.184800, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the northeastern Colombian region. Its single runway 17/35 extends 7,381 feet and is constructed with asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Meteorological data indicates predominantly favorable visual flight conditions, with 78% of observations supporting VFR operations. Temperature remains consistent, averaging 21.6°C with a moderate range between 17°C and 29°C. Pilots can expect northwest winds at an average of 6.9 knots, with maximum gusts up to 20 knots and calm conditions occurring 5.2% of the time.
Notable Features
The airport's elevation at 3,897 feet MSL suggests terrain interaction and potential density altitude considerations for aircraft performance. Visibility typically remains excellent, averaging 10 statute miles with negligible instances of visibility below 3 miles. Seasonal fog occurs in 16.9% of observations, primarily impacting winter and transitional months.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17/35 demonstrates 100% favorable wind alignment, with an average crosswind component of only 3.1 knots. September, December, and January represent the most consistent VFR months for operations. Pilots should anticipate potential marginal conditions during less predictable weather periods, when MVFR conditions represent 14.4% of observations.
