About Shepparton Airport

Overview

Shepparton Airport serves the Goulburn Valley region in Victoria, Australia, providing critical aviation infrastructure for regional and general aviation operations. Located at coordinates -36.428341, 145.391473, the airport sits at an elevation of 374 feet above mean sea level, supporting diverse aviation activities in the area.

Flying Conditions

The airport features two runways with distinct surface types: runway 09/27 is gravel (GVL) with a length of 1,388 feet, while runway 18/36 is asphalt (ASP) and significantly longer at 4,521 feet. Pilots should anticipate potential surface condition variations between these runways, especially during seasonal weather changes typical of the Goulburn Valley region.

Notable Features

Shepparton Airport's dual-runway configuration provides operational flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions. The significant difference in runway lengths allows for accommodating various aircraft performance requirements, from smaller general aviation aircraft to potentially larger regional transport planes.

Approach Considerations

Given the airport's two runways with different surface types and lengths, pilots should carefully evaluate current wind conditions and their specific aircraft performance characteristics when selecting an approach. The 4,521-foot asphalt runway 18/36 offers more substantial landing and takeoff options compared to the shorter gravel runway 09/27.
