About Annaba Rabah Bitat Airport
Overview
Annaba Rabah Bitat Airport serves the coastal city of Annaba in northeastern Algeria, functioning as a medium-sized regional airport. Located at 36.826781, 7.813340 with an elevation of 16 ft MSL, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region. Its two asphalted runways offer substantial operational capacity for commercial and general aviation traffic.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Annaba are predominantly favorable, with VFR conditions present 85.9% of the time. Prevailing southwest winds at an average of 7 knots and temperatures ranging from 4°C to 34°C (average 16.7°C) create stable flying environments. September, October, and January represent the most consistent VFR months, with minimal instances of low visibility or adverse weather.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways: 05/23 measuring 7,513 ft and 18/36 measuring 9,843 ft, both constructed of asphalt. Wind patterns demonstrate consistent directional predictability, with southwest winds at 225° dominating local meteorological conditions. Maximum recorded wind speeds reach 44 knots, though calm conditions occur 2.2% of the time.
Approach Considerations
Both runways offer 100% favorable wind alignments, with minimal average crosswind components (2.8kt for 05/23, 4.8kt for 18/36). Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with extremely rare occurrences of restricted visibility (fog present only 1.2% of observations). Pilots can expect consistent approach conditions with high probability of visual meteorological conditions.
