The airport provides medium-sized airport infrastructure for regional and commercial aviation operations in the central Mexican plateau region. Its strategic location and substantial runway length of 11,155 feet accommodate a variety of aircraft types.

Flying Conditions

The airport predominantly experiences Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with 82.3% of observations supporting clear weather operations. Pilots can expect consistent southern winds averaging 4.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 29 knots. Temperature variations range from 0°C to 29°C, with an average of 15.5°C, and visibility typically around 6.6 statute miles.

Notable Features

The airport's high elevation at 6,033 feet requires careful performance calculations for aircraft operations. Its single runway (05/23) is asphalted and offers consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions. The surrounding terrain of the Mexican plateau may present potential orographic wind and turbulence considerations for approaching aircraft.

Approach Considerations

Runway 05/23 offers excellent wind coverage, with an average crosswind of only 2.9 knots. The best Visual Flight Rules months are December, October, and November, providing optimal flying conditions. Pilots should be prepared for potential reduced visibility during foggy periods, which occur in approximately 5% of observations.
