About General Urquiza Airport
Overview
General Urquiza Airport serves the city of Parana in Argentina, functioning as a medium-sized regional airport. Located at coordinates -31.794800, -60.480400, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Entre Rios province. Its elevation of 242 ft MSL positions it in a relatively flat terrain characteristic of the region.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation and location suggest a moderate climate with potential for variable wind conditions. At 242 ft MSL, pilots can expect generally stable atmospheric conditions without extreme altitude challenges. Seasonal variations in temperature and wind patterns should be anticipated, particularly given the airport's geographical positioning.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (1/19) with an impressive 6,890 ft asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its substantial runway length provides flexibility for various aircraft types and operational requirements. The airport's asphalted runway indicates good surface conditions for most standard aviation activities.
Approach Considerations
Runway 1/19's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approaches. Pilots should be prepared for wind variations given the runway's alignment. The substantial 6,890 ft runway length provides significant operational margin for most aircraft categories, allowing for comfortable approach and landing parameters.
