4. Approach

This page is dedicated to help pilots to better visualize the surrounding terrain during the IFR approach "Break Clouds for VFR approach RWY 27".

NOTE: For specific IFR departure procedures refer to the AIP Italy. The Weather Minima for the approach are:

DAY

  • -  Visibility: 6,000 mt
  • -  Ceiling: 2,500 ftNIGHT
  • -  Visibility: 8,000 mt
  • -  Ceiling: 3,000 ftWARNING: Due to mountainous area surrounding the aerodrome, wind shear and/or turbulence phenomena may occur. Therefore pilots could experience possible severe wind shear during flight operations in case of wind stronger than 15 KTS.NOTE: Due to the peculiarity of the orography surrounding the aerodrome, in order to avoid interference between instrumental arriving/departing traffic with any other aircraft, no other traffic is allowed on Albenga aerodrome when an IFR departure/arrival is in progress.

NOTE: Due to the peculiarity of the orography surrounding the aerodrome, in order to avoid interference between instrumental traffic bound to Albenga NDB (ABN) after a balked landing and any other aircraft, no other traffic is allowed in the airspace included between Albenga aerodrome and the holding pattern over Albenga NDB (ABN) when approach and landing is in progress.

The traffic circuit shall always be North of the RWY.
