About Jorge Wilsterman International Airport
Overview
Jorge Wilsterman International Airport serves Cochabamba, Bolivia, as a critical medium-sized airport situated at a high elevation of 8,360 feet MSL. The airport provides essential air transportation infrastructure for the central Bolivian region, connecting urban and regional destinations. Its strategic location and substantial runway infrastructure support diverse aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 88.2% of observations indicating favorable visual flight rules. Temperatures range moderately from 10°C to 33°C, averaging 19.5°C, which provides relatively stable flying conditions. Wind patterns are primarily from the southeast at 135° with an average speed of 6.1 knots, and pilots can expect exceptional visibility averaging 10 statute miles.
Notable Features
The airport features two significant asphalted runways: Runway 05/23 measuring 8,692 feet and Runway 14/32 extending 12,460 feet. Its high-altitude location at 8,360 feet MSL requires careful performance calculations and consideration of density altitude effects. Both runways demonstrate consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind components.
Approach Considerations
September through November represent the airport's optimal VFR months, offering the most consistent flying conditions. Pilots should anticipate light to moderate southeastern winds and prepare for high-altitude approach procedures. The extensive runway lengths provide flexibility for aircraft operations, with Runway 14/32 offering particularly generous landing and takeoff capabilities.
