About Nojeh Air Base

Nojeh Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the IR AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.

Overview

Nojeh Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in Amirabad, Iran, at an elevation of 5,609 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates 35.211601, 48.653400, the airport serves as a strategic aviation facility in the region. Its significant runway infrastructure supports a variety of aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

With an elevation of 5,609 feet MSL, Nojeh Air Base experiences higher altitude conditions that can impact aircraft performance and meteorological dynamics. The airport's significant elevation suggests potential challenges with density altitude, particularly during warmer seasonal periods. Pilots should anticipate potential variations in aircraft performance and meteorological conditions related to the elevated terrain.

Notable Features

The airport features three substantial asphalted runways, providing multiple operational options for different wind and traffic conditions. Runway 05/23 measures 12,915 feet in length, while Runway 13/31 extends to 14,625 feet, and Runway 13R/31L spans 14,300 feet. These extensive runway lengths offer significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types and mission profiles.

Approach Considerations

Given the multiple runway configuration, pilots have strategic options for approach and departure based on prevailing wind conditions. The longest runway (13/31 at 14,625 feet) provides extensive landing and takeoff capabilities. Pilots should carefully review current meteorological conditions and utilize the runway most aligned with wind direction and aircraft performance requirements.
