Runway wind components
Why it matters: Crosswind, tailwind, and gust spread affect handling and performance. Headwind is generally helpful but not a limit.
| Runway | Length (m) | Headwind (kt) | Crosswind (kt) | Tailwind (kt) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 | 1200 m | 6.1 | 5.1 (L) | 0.0 |
| 30 | 1200 m | 0.0 | 5.1 (R) | 6.1 |
Communications & Frequencies
Cascades from FIR/ACC/information defaults to local aerodrome services. Frequencies are training/reference data and must be verified against official AIS/AIP before operational use.
