Altamira Interstate Airport serves the southeastern Pará region in Brazil, located at coordinates -3.253144, -52.253938 with an elevation of 368 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical transportation infrastructure in a region characterized by complex terrain and limited ground access.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at SBHT are predominantly visual flight rules (VFR), with 64.5% of observations supporting clear conditions and an additional 34.7% indicating marginal VFR. The airport experiences consistent easterly winds averaging 5.6 knots, with maximum gusts up to 15 knots and calm periods occurring 5.5% of the time. Temperature ranges from 22°C to 37°C, with an average of 29.4°C.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (7/25) measuring 6,572 feet with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its location in the Brazilian interior suggests potential terrain complexity and regional meteorological variations that pilots should anticipate during flight planning.

Approach Considerations

Given the prevailing easterly winds, runway 25 will likely provide the most favorable approach conditions. Pilots should prioritize October, November, and September as optimal months for VFR operations, with consistently high visibility averaging 10 statute miles and minimal likelihood of fog or restricted visibility scenarios.
