About Pinang Kampai Airport

Overview

Pinang Kampai Airport serves the city of Dumai in Indonesia, located at coordinates 1.609114, 101.433492. As a medium-sized airport situated at an elevation of 55 feet mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation needs. The airport supports regional connectivity for Riau Province in Sumatra.

Flying Conditions

Being located near the equator, Pinang Kampai experiences consistent tropical maritime weather conditions with high humidity and potential thunderstorm activity. The airport's low elevation of 55 feet MSL suggests minimal terrain-induced weather variations. Pilots should anticipate potential convective weather typical of the Indonesian maritime environment.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (03/21) with an asphalt surface measuring 5,905 feet in length. Its geographical position near the east coast of Sumatra indicates potential maritime wind influences and coastal meteorological dynamics. The runway orientation suggests potential crosswind conditions depending on prevailing wind patterns.

Approach Considerations

Runway 03/21's substantial length of 5,905 feet provides adequate operational flexibility for most regional aircraft types. The asphalt surface and low elevation should provide relatively stable approach conditions. Pilots should be prepared for potential tropical weather variations and conduct standard terrain and wind assessments during approach planning.
