Elevation & Atmospheric Density

Lowland / Coastal Basin Aerodrome

Positioned at 1,535 ft (468 m MSL), this aerodrome operates near standard International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) sea-level air density. High ambient air pressure provides optimal turbine thrust conversion, maximum wing lift coefficients, and minimal ground roll distance requirements, allowing long-haul flights to depart at maximum structural takeoff weight limits without atmospheric density penalties.

Regional Density & Alternates (100 NM)

1 Qualifying Aerodrome in Vicinity

Within its 100 NM cluster of 1 neighboring aerodromes, Oujda Angads Airport is supported by major regional alternatives. Notably, Oran Es-Sénia (Ahmed Ben Bella) International Airport (ORN) lies just 81.1 NM away with a 11,811 ft runway, offering reliable operational redundancy for commercial diversions and congested airspace rerouting.

Fleet Compatibility & Ground Roll

Primary Runway: 9,843 ft (3,000 m)

At 9,843 ft (3,000 m), the primary runway comfortably accommodates mid-to-large twin-aisle widebody transports (such as the Boeing 787-9 and Airbus A330-900) as well as maximum-range narrowbody transcontinental configurations (Airbus A321XLR and Boeing 737 MAX 9) under typical atmospheric conditions.
