About Évora Airfield

Overview

Évora Airfield (LPEV) is a medium-sized airport located in the Alentejo region of southern Portugal. Situated at an elevation of 807 feet above mean sea level, the airport serves the city of Évora and surrounding areas with two distinct runways. Its strategic location provides important aviation infrastructure for the region.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 807 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment that may experience variable wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal activity given the airport's inland location, with potential seasonal wind shifts between runway 01/19 and 08/26. The two runways offer flexibility in handling different wind directions and approach scenarios.

Notable Features

Évora Airfield features two runways with different surface compositions: runway 01/19 is asphalted (ASP) and measures 4,265 feet in length, while runway 08/26 is gravel (GVL) and spans 2,100 feet. The variation in runway surfaces and lengths provides operational versatility for different aircraft types and weather conditions. The airport's coordinates at 38.533501, -7.889640 place it in a relatively flat geographical region.

Approach Considerations

Runway selection will depend primarily on wind direction, with the longer 01/19 asphalted runway likely preferred for most operations. The shorter 08/26 gravel runway offers an alternative approach option. Pilots should carefully assess current wind conditions and their aircraft's performance characteristics when planning arrivals or departures at Évora Airfield.
