About Hubli Airport

Overview

Hubli Airport serves the urban region of Karnataka in southwestern India, located near the city of Hubli. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 2171 feet above mean sea level, it provides regional connectivity and supports various aviation operations in the Karnataka state. The airport's single runway configuration enables aircraft movements for commercial and potentially general aviation purposes.

Flying Conditions

Situated at a moderate elevation of 2171 ft MSL, Hubli Airport experiences typical inland Karnataka weather patterns with potential seasonal wind variations. The airport's runway 08/26, measuring 5479 feet in length and surfaced with asphalt, accommodates regional aircraft operations under diverse meteorological conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations due to the airport's inland location and elevation.

Notable Features

The airport is positioned at coordinates 15.361700, 75.084900, indicating a location in the Deccan Plateau region with surrounding terrain characteristics. The single runway orientation (08/26) suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and departure phases. The asphalt runway surface provides standard friction characteristics for most medium-sized aircraft operations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 08/26's 5479-foot length supports approach operations for regional aircraft types, requiring standard stabilized approach procedures. Wind direction will influence runway selection, with potential crosswind components requiring careful pilot technique. Standard instrument approach and visual flight rules (VFR) procedures would be applicable given the airport's medium-sized classification.
