About Jorge Newbery Airpark

Overview

Jorge Newbery Airpark is a large airport located in Buenos Aires, Argentina, situated at an elevation of 18 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates -34.559200, -58.415600, the airport serves as a significant aviation facility in the metropolitan area. Its ICAO code SABE identifies it within the international aviation network.

Flying Conditions

Being at a low elevation near sea level, Jorge Newbery experiences minimal altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft operations. The airport's proximity to coastal regions suggests potential for variable wind conditions that pilots should monitor carefully. Seasonal variations in Buenos Aires can impact local meteorological conditions and aircraft performance.

Notable Features

The airport features a substantial runway 13/31 measuring 7,710 feet in length, constructed with concrete (CON) surface. Its significant runway length accommodates a wide range of aircraft types and provides operational flexibility for different aviation requirements. The airport's urban location in Buenos Aires implies potential complex airspace interactions and traffic management considerations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 13/31's orientation suggests potential wind alignment scenarios for approach and departure procedures. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind components given the runway's directional alignment. The concrete runway surface provides consistent braking characteristics across different weather conditions, supporting reliable aircraft operations.
