Albacete Airport, known also as Los Llanos Air Base, is a joint civil-military aerodrome in Castilla-La Mancha, central Spain, built around a single long paved runway shared between the Spanish Air Force and civil traffic. Sitting at a relatively high elevation of 2300 feet, it offers simulator pilots a substantial runway with no published ILS, making it a useful visual-flying destination in the region.
Albacete Airport, also known as Los Llanos Air Base, serves the city of Albacete in the Castilla-La Mancha region of central Spain. It is a dual-use facility, combining a Spanish Air Force base with limited civil airport operations, and is built around a single very long hard runway. For a simulator pilot, the field is notable for its high elevation of 2300 feet and its long, well-lit paved runway, which together with its military character give it a different flavour to the more typical short civil strips found elsewhere in the region.
The airport lies at coordinates 38.9486N, 1.8633W, close to the city of Albacete in Castilla-La Mancha. As a facility hosting both military and civil operations, it can be expected to sit within controlled airspace appropriate to a base of this type, with approach control services provided in the surrounding area.
Albacete has a single physical runway orientated 09/27. Runway 09 is 8793 feet long and runway 27 is 8766 feet long; both are hard-surfaced and lit. There is no ILS approach published for the field.
Air traffic services are provided across three frequencies: Approach on 118.725 MHz, Ground on 121.8 MHz, and Tower on 122.1 MHz.
Albacete Airport operates as a joint civil-military facility alongside Los Llanos Air Base, with the Spanish Air Force maintaining a significant presence including dedicated military apron areas. Civil air traffic is handled through a separate civil terminal function within the shared aerodrome infrastructure.
