About Pendopo Airport

Overview

Pendopo Airport serves the Talang Gudang region on Sumatra Island, Indonesia. Located at coordinates -3.286070, 103.879997, this medium-sized airport operates at an elevation of 184 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides essential regional transportation infrastructure for the surrounding area.

Flying Conditions

Situated in a tropical climate zone, Pendopo Airport experiences consistent humidity and potential convective weather typical of Sumatra's inland regions. Pilots should anticipate potential afternoon thunderstorm development and localized thermal activity due to the airport's moderate elevation and geographic location. Temperature and wind variations can be significant during seasonal transition periods.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (03/21) with a length of 4,265 feet, constructed with a PEM (presumed asphalt or packed earth material) surface. Its moderate elevation and relatively long runway provide operational flexibility for medium-sized aircraft. The surrounding terrain is likely characterized by the typical flat to gently rolling landscape of Sumatra's interior regions.

Approach Considerations

Runway 03/21 suggests the primary approach axis runs approximately northeast/southwest. Pilots should review current wind conditions to determine the most appropriate runway direction, considering crosswind components. Standard instrument approach procedures would be recommended given the airport's location and elevation.
