About Loikaw Airport
Overview
Loikaw Airport serves the capital of Kayah State in eastern Myanmar, situated at an elevation of 2,940 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for this mountainous region, supporting regional connectivity and essential travel needs for the local population.
Flying Conditions
Located in a highland area, Loikaw Airport experiences varied atmospheric conditions typical of Myanmar's subtropical highland climate. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and density altitude variations due to the significant elevation of 2,940 feet MSL, which can impact aircraft performance.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (01/19) constructed with bituminous surface, measuring 5,200 feet in length. Its geographical position at coordinates 19.691500, 97.214798 places it within a mountainous terrain context, which may require heightened terrain awareness during approach and departure phases.
Approach Considerations
Given the runway's 01/19 orientation, pilots should consider wind direction and potential terrain interactions when planning approaches. The bituminous runway surface provides standard friction characteristics, but operators should conduct standard terrain and obstacle assessments specific to this highland airport environment.
