Positioned at 57.503502 North latitude and 10.229400 East longitude, the airport sits at an elevation of 92 feet above mean sea level, providing accessibility for regional aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

Denmark's northern coastal location typically presents variable weather conditions that pilots should anticipate. The airport's modest elevation and coastal proximity suggest potential for wind shifts and maritime-influenced meteorological patterns that can impact flight operations.

Notable Features

The airport features a single asphalt runway (08/26) with a length of 3,934 feet, which supports general aviation and regional aircraft movements. Its geographic position in northern Denmark indicates potential terrain variations and coastal atmospheric interactions that pilots should consider during flight planning.
