Overview
Xangongo Airport serves the municipal area of Xangongo in Angola, positioned at coordinates -16.755400, 14.965300. As a medium airport situated at an elevation of 3,635 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential support to local economic activities.
Flying Conditions
Located at a significant elevation of 3,635 ft MSL, Xangongo Airport experiences altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft operations. The airport's asphalted runway at 7,400 feet long suggests capability for supporting medium-sized aircraft, with potential variations in performance based on local atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (03/21) oriented in a north-northeast to south-southwest direction, which can influence wind interactions and approach strategies. Its medium classification indicates infrastructure capable of supporting regional commercial, charter, or utility aviation operations in the Angolan landscape.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21's substantial 7,400-foot length provides flexibility for various aircraft approach profiles and operational requirements. Pilots should carefully assess airport elevation, potential terrain interactions, and prepare for performance calculations specific to the 3,635 ft MSL environment when planning arrivals or departures.
