About Mengen-Hohentengen Airfield

Overview

Mengen-Hohentengen Airfield (EDTM) is a medium-sized airport located in the southern German state of Baden-Württemberg. Situated at an elevation of 1,818 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides aviation services to the Mengen region. Its strategic location and dual runway configuration make it a versatile facility for general aviation and local flying operations.

Flying Conditions

Located at 48.053890, 9.372778, the airport experiences typical southern German highland weather conditions. The significant elevation of 1,818 feet MSL can impact aircraft performance, particularly during warmer months or when operating at maximum gross weight. Pilots should anticipate potential density altitude effects and plan accordingly.

Notable Features

The airport features two distinct runways: a primary asphalt runway 07/25 measuring 5,138 feet, and a secondary grass runway 07L/25R extending 2,298 feet. This dual-runway configuration offers operational flexibility, allowing pilots to select runways based on wind conditions and aircraft capabilities. The presence of a grass runway provides additional options for lighter aircraft and different surface conditions.

Approach Considerations

Runway 07/25 is the primary paved runway, offering a substantial 5,138-foot length suitable for most general aviation aircraft. The secondary grass runway 07L/25R provides an alternative surface for smaller aircraft. Pilots should carefully assess current wind conditions, aircraft performance limitations, and personal minimums when selecting an approach runway.
