About Linfen Yaodu Airport
Overview
Linfen Yaodu Airport serves the urban area of Linfen in China's Shanxi Province. As a medium-sized airport situated at 1483 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical regional transportation infrastructure for the surrounding industrial and agricultural region. The airport supports various aviation operations with its single primary runway.
Flying Conditions
Located in central China, Linfen Yaodu Airport experiences typical continental climate variations with potential significant seasonal wind shifts. The single runway (17/35) oriented northeast/southwest spans 8,530 feet of asphalt, offering substantial landing and takeoff capabilities. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal and terrain-induced wind variations due to the airport's moderate elevation and regional topography.
Notable Features
The airport's geographic coordinates (36.132629, 111.641236) place it in a region characterized by complex terrain typical of China's inland provinces. Its single runway configuration requires precise navigation and adherence to established approach procedures. The 8,530-foot asphalt runway provides flexibility for multiple aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17/35 suggests prevailing wind patterns typically favor approaches from north-northeast or south-southwest directions. Given the airport's elevation of 1483 feet MSL, pilots should calculate performance parameters accounting for terrain and altitude effects. Standard instrument approach procedures will be critical for safe operations, particularly during seasonal weather transitions.
