About Lahad Datu Airport
Overview
Lahad Datu Airport serves the eastern region of Sabah, Malaysia, located in the district of Lahad Datu. Positioned at an elevation of 45 feet above mean sea level, this medium-sized airport supports regional transportation and local aviation needs in the Sabah state. The airport provides critical infrastructure for connecting this eastern coastal area of Borneo.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation of 45 ft MSL indicates a coastal environment typical of eastern Borneo, which generally experiences humid tropical weather conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential variable winds and potential convective activity common to maritime tropical regions. Seasonal monsoon patterns can significantly influence local meteorological conditions throughout the year.
Notable Features
Lahad Datu Airport features a single runway (11/29) with an asphalt surface measuring 4,498 feet in length. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. The airport's coastal coordinates at 5.032410, 118.323760 indicate proximity to maritime terrain, which can introduce specific wind and visibility challenges.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29's moderate length of 4,498 feet requires careful performance calculations for different aircraft types. Pilots should prepare for potential wind variations given the coastal location and be prepared to adjust approach strategies accordingly. Standard instrument approach procedures will be influenced by the airport's low elevation and surrounding geographical features.
