About Suai Airport

Overview

Suai Airport serves the region of Timor-Leste (TL), located at coordinates -9.303310, 125.287003. As a medium airport situated at 96 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Suai area, supporting regional transportation and potentially local economic activities.

Flying Conditions

Being located near the southern coast of Timor, the airport likely experiences tropical maritime weather conditions with potential seasonal wind variations. The airport's modest elevation of 96 ft MSL suggests relatively stable atmospheric conditions without significant terrain-induced turbulence.

Notable Features

The airport features a single asphalt runway (16/34) with a length of 3,448 feet, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographical position near the coast implies potential for crosswind conditions and the need for careful wind assessment during approach and departure.

Approach Considerations

Runway 16/34 orientation indicates potential north-northwest and south-southeast approaches, with pilots needing to consider prevailing wind directions. The 3,448-foot runway length requires careful performance calculations, especially for larger aircraft or during challenging meteorological conditions.
