About Anuradhapura Airport
Overview
Anuradhapura Airport serves the historic city of Anuradhapura in northern Sri Lanka, providing regional connectivity for the area. Located at coordinates 8.301542, 80.428480, the airport sits at an elevation of 324 feet above mean sea level and supports medium-scale aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Sri Lanka's tropical climate produces consistent temperature ranges and humidity levels that can impact aircraft performance. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations given the airport's moderate elevation of 324 ft MSL, which may influence takeoff and landing characteristics.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (05/23) with an asphalted surface measuring 4,876 feet in length. Its geographical positioning in the northern region of Sri Lanka presents potential terrain considerations for approach and departure procedures, with surrounding landscape typical of the island's interior plains.
Approach Considerations
Runway 05/23 provides a primary operational surface aligned approximately 050/230 degrees, which allows flexibility based on prevailing wind conditions. Pilots should assess wind direction and runway length when planning arrivals and departures, considering the 4,876-foot asphalt runway's operational limitations for different aircraft types.
