Runways of UZFA

Threshold	Course	Length	Width	Surface
04	40°	2,978 m (9,770 ft)	38 m (125 ft)	asphalt
22	220°	2,978 m (9,770 ft)	38 m (125 ft)	asphalt

The course is derived from the runway designator (number × 10), not from a survey - the actual magnetic bearing can differ by a few degrees.

Declared distances (TORA, TODA, ASDA, LDA) are published in the national AIP - they are not part of this table.

Runways at UZFA

According to OurAirports data (compiled from AIP and FAA sources), Andijan International Airport has one runway: 04/22 - 2,978 m long (9,770 ft), 38 m wide, asphalt surface.

Runway headings and wind

The thresholds are oriented as follows: 04/22 on 40° and 220° magnetic. A threshold designator is its magnetic heading divided by ten (ICAO Annex 14), so the runway axis can be read straight off the numbers.

For the 04/22 axis, wind from the south-east (around 130°) or from the north-west (around 310°) blows perpendicular to the runway and produces the largest crosswind component. Wind from around 40° or 220° acts along the runway, as a headwind or a tailwind. The decoder on this page computes those components automatically from the current METAR.

METAR and TAF for UZFA

Weather reports for Andijan International Airport are published under the ICAO code UZFA. A METAR is an observation of current conditions, usually issued every 30 or 60 minutes; a TAF is a forecast for the airport area, typically covering 9 to 30 hours.

The decoder breaks the UZFA report down into its parts: wind direction and speed including gusts and variability, visibility (including CAVOK and directional minimum visibility), weather phenomena by WMO code, cloud layers with their bases, temperature and dew point, QNH pressure, and the resulting flight category - VFR, MVFR, IFR or LIFR - using FAA thresholds.

Not every airport issues its own reports; many smaller airfields have no weather station. If no current data is available for UZFA, check the nearby airports listed below.

Reports always use UTC (the Z suffix). The Asia/Tashkent zone stays at GMT+05:00 year-round, so converting to local time is always the same shift.

The closest airports in the database, measured in a straight line from the reference point, are Osh International Airport (UCFO, 44 km), Kyzyl-Kiya Airport (UAFS, 55 km), Fergana International Airport (UZFF, 62 km). When no report is available for UZFA, they usually give the best approximation of conditions in the area.
