About Adıyaman Airport

Overview

Adıyaman Airport serves the southeastern Turkish province of Adıyaman, situated at an elevation of 2,216 feet MSL. The medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region, supporting both commercial and potential general aviation operations. Its strategic location offers access to the historic and culturally significant southeastern Anatolian plateau.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at Adıyaman Airport are predominantly favorable for visual flight rules (VFR), with 89.5% of observations supporting clear flying conditions. The airport experiences consistent easterly winds averaging 7 knots, with temperatures ranging from -5°C to 35°C and an average of 14.7°C. September, October, and November represent the most reliable months for VFR flying, with minimal meteorological disruptions.

Notable Features

The airport features a single concrete runway (04/22) measuring 8,153 feet in length, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its elevation of 2,216 feet and location in the mountainous southeastern region of Turkey suggest potential terrain-related considerations for pilots. The airport's geographic positioning may introduce localized wind patterns and potential thermal activities typical of the Anatolian plateau.

Approach Considerations

Runway 04/22 demonstrates extremely favorable wind alignment, with 100% compatible wind conditions and an average crosswind of only 3.8 knots. Pilots can expect generally stable approach conditions, with excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles and extremely rare instances of reduced visibility. The consistent easterly winds provide predictable approach and departure parameters for most aircraft operations.
