About Inca Manco Capac International Airport
Overview
Inca Manco Capac International Airport serves Juliaca, Peru, at a high elevation of 12,552 feet MSL. The medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure in the Andean highlands, connecting the region through its single runway 12/30 measuring 13,779 feet in length.
Flying Conditions
Statistical data reveals highly consistent VFR conditions, with 95.3% of observations reporting visual flight rules. Temperatures range from 2°C to 22°C, averaging 13.6°C, with most favorable flying conditions occurring in October, November, and December. Prevailing easterly winds at an average of 6.5 knots support predictable flight operations.
Notable Features
Located at significant altitude in the Peruvian high plateau, the airport presents challenges typical of high-elevation airfields. The extreme elevation requires careful aircraft performance calculations and awareness of reduced air density. Runway surface is asphalt (ASP), providing standard ground characteristics for medium airport operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 12/30 offers excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind of 3.5 knots. Maximum recorded wind speeds of 47 knots indicate potential for occasional challenging wind conditions, necessitating thorough pre-flight wind assessment and potential alternate planning.
