Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 150 ft MSL suggests a relatively low-altitude environment typical of coastal Malaysian terrain. While specific local meteorological data is not provided, pilots should anticipate potential humidity and tropical weather patterns common to the region's geographical location.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (05/23) with a length of 4,101 feet, classified as a GRE (grass) surface type. Its moderate runway length accommodates smaller and medium-sized aircraft operations, with orientation aligned approximately along a 050/230 degree heading.

Approach Considerations

Given the runway's 05/23 orientation, wind conditions will significantly influence preferred landing and takeoff directions.
