1. GEOGRAPHICAL DATA<br />
1.1 The AD is located on the N shoreline of<br />
the Crete island 2.5nm E from the city<br />
harbour. Built-up area direct W with an<br />
OBST 130ft (Church) close to the AD.<br />
Mountainious terrain in all directions. S<br />
and SE the terrain immediately rises to<br />
heights of 400ft to 1000ft with<br />
spotheights up to 974ft. Further within<br />
10nm terrain rises to 2000ft with<br />
spotheights to SE 1768ft, to S 2661ft<br />
and to W 2628ft.<br />
2. WEATHER<br />
2.1 Mediterranian climate with hot, dry summers<br />
and very mild, rainy winters. Mean<br />
MAX/MNM temperature +29,2/+21,5°C,<br />
+15.6/+8,8°C in JUL/JAN respectively.<br />
2.2 Summer. From mid MAY until mid<br />
SEP prevailing N dry wind with fine<br />
weather. During JUL/AUG wind W/NW<br />
tending to be very strong, strength falling<br />
off at night. Temperature during the<br />
period is rather hot with MAX in JUL/<br />
AUG. Afternoon temperatures of 35°C<br />
to 40°C are not uncommon. Occasional<br />
ST and possibility of CB during the afternoon.<br />
2.3 Winter. Frontal systems from W.<br />
Linesqualls and thunderstorms occuring.<br />
Wind from W/SW.<br />
2.4 Seasonal Phenomena. MAR-MAY, AUG-<br />
OCT seasonal extreme SSE winds exceeding<br />
20kt prevail over and at the vicinity<br />
of the AD. When these winds prevail,<br />
the following phenonema, affecting<br />
seriously the flights safety, are observed:<br />
- Severe turbulence on the short finals,<br />
TKOF and initial TKOF climb path area<br />
as well as the entire length of RWY 09/<br />
27.<br />
- Vind direction varies from 150-190° at<br />
the beginning of RWY 27 and from 170-<br />
210° at the beginning of RWY 09.<br />
- The SSE winds are gusty at their initial<br />
appearance.<br />
- Pilots are urged to volunteer reports of<br />
these phenomena to TWR or APP, so<br />
that the pilots of succeeding ACFT can<br />
be warned.<br />
- Experience has shown cause for conservative<br />
judgement when estimating<br />
possibility of safe landing in such winds.<br />
