About Poznań-Ławica Airport

Overview

Poznań-Ławica Airport serves the Greater Poland region, located in western Poland near the city of Poznań. As a medium-sized airport with two runways, it provides critical aviation infrastructure supporting regional and commercial operations. The airport sits at an elevation of 308 feet mean sea level, offering moderate terrain conditions for aircraft.

Flying Conditions

Pilots can expect variable weather conditions throughout the year, with significant seasonal temperature ranges from -13°C to 29°C. Flight rules are predominantly VFR (50.4%), with MVFR and IFR conditions also frequent. Wind patterns are predominantly easterly at an average of 7.1 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 25 knots, which pilots should consider during approach and landing.

Notable Features

The airport features two distinct runways: a shorter 2,296-foot grass runway (02/20) and a longer 8,215-foot concrete-asphalt runway (10/28). Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind coverage, with low average crosswind conditions of 5.3 knots for runway 02/20 and 3.5 knots for runway 10/28. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with minimal occurrences of restricted visibility.

Approach Considerations

September through November represent the most favorable VFR months for operations. Pilots should be prepared for potential fog conditions, which occur in 9.8% of observations. The easterly prevailing winds and low crosswind averages suggest consistent approach conditions, with both runways offering reliable wind alignment for most operations.
