About Tanah Merah Airport
Overview
Tanah Merah Airport is a medium-sized airport located in Indonesia at coordinates -6.096690, 140.303521. Positioned at an elevation of 57 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves regional transportation needs in its geographical area. Its ICAO code WAKT identifies it within international aviation communication systems.
Flying Conditions
The airport's relatively low elevation at 57 ft MSL suggests a relatively flat terrain environment with minimal altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft. Being situated near the equatorial region, pilots can expect consistent tropical weather patterns with potential humidity and thermal variations throughout the year. Standard tropical aviation weather precautions should be observed during approach and departure.
Notable Features
Tanah Merah's geographic positioning indicates potential coastal or near-coastal environment, which may introduce maritime meteorological influences during flight operations. The airport's medium classification suggests it supports a range of aircraft sizes and operational capabilities. Pilots should anticipate standard regional infrastructure and navigation support typical of Indonesian medium-sized airports.
Approach Considerations
Given the airport's low elevation and potential regional terrain, standard instrument approach procedures are likely applicable. Pilots should prepare for potential thermal activity and localized weather shifts characteristic of equatorial regions. Standard preflight weather briefing and current ATIS information will be crucial for safe navigation to and from Tanah Merah Airport.
