Overview
General Enrique Mosconi Airport serves the city of Tartagal in northern Argentina, positioned at coordinates -22.616877, -63.793015. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 1472 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the Salta Province region. The airport primarily supports regional and domestic aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 1472 ft MSL indicates a moderate terrain environment that can influence atmospheric conditions and aircraft performance. Pilots should anticipate potential density altitude variations, particularly during warmer seasons which can impact aircraft climbing capabilities. The airport's geographical location suggests potential for localized weather patterns typical of northern Argentine terrain.
Notable Features
The single runway (02/20) is 4921 feet long and surfaced with asphalt, accommodating medium-sized aircraft operations. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. The airport's moderate elevation and runway length require standard performance calculations for aircraft using this facility.
Approach Considerations
Runway 02/20's alignment indicates potential wind variability that pilots must carefully assess during approach. The 4921-foot asphalt runway requires standard runway performance calculations, especially considering the 1472 ft elevation. Pilots should conduct thorough pre-flight planning to ensure safe operational parameters for their specific aircraft type.
