About Tandag Airport

Overview

Tandag Airport serves the southeastern region of Surigao del Sur province in the Philippines. Located at coordinates 9.072002, 126.171320, this medium-sized airport provides essential transportation infrastructure for the local area and regional connectivity.

Flying Conditions

Being situated at a low elevation of 16 ft MSL, Tandag Airport experiences typical tropical maritime weather conditions characteristic of the Philippines. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity and variable wind patterns that are common in this coastal geographic region.

Notable Features

The airport features a single concrete runway (03/21) with a length of 4,765 feet, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its coastal location suggests potential maritime weather influences and the need for careful wind assessment during approach and departure procedures.

Approach Considerations

Runway 03/21 provides a primary approach vector aligned with the local terrain and likely prevailing wind patterns. Given the relatively modest runway length of 4,765 feet, pilots should carefully calculate performance parameters for their specific aircraft type when planning operations at this airport.
