Overview
Bagdogra Airport serves the Siliguri region in West Bengal, India, operating as a critical medium-sized airport in northeastern India. Located at an elevation of 412 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides essential air connectivity for the surrounding mountainous and geographically complex terrain.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation and geographical position suggest variable meteorological conditions typical of the sub-Himalayan region. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and terrain-influenced weather patterns that can affect approach and departure procedures, particularly during seasonal transition periods.
Notable Features
Situated at coordinates 26.681200, 88.328598, Bagdogra Airport features a single runway (18/36) with a substantial length of 9,035 feet constructed with a PEM (Pavement Evaluation Method) surface. The airport's proximity to complex mountainous terrain requires heightened situational awareness during all flight operations.
Approach Considerations
The runway orientation of 18/36 suggests potential wind alignment variations that pilots must carefully evaluate during approach and landing. With a significant runway length of 9,035 feet, the airport provides considerable operational flexibility for various aircraft types operating in this challenging regional environment.
