Aosta Corrado Gex Airport (LIMW/AOT), also known as the Aeroporto Regionale della Valle d'Aosta, sits at Saint-Christophe on the eastern edge of Aosta in Italy's Valle d'Aosta region. At an elevation of 1,785 ft it is a genuine alpine airfield, and its single ILS-equipped runway and associated VOR/DME make it a notable destination for pilots flying in mountainous terrain.
Aosta Corrado Gex Airport, known locally as the Aeroporto Regionale della Valle d'Aosta, is a regional airfield at Saint-Christophe (AO), immediately east of the city of Aosta in Italy's Valle d'Aosta region. Its high elevation and surrounding alpine terrain make it a distinctive and demanding destination for visual flight, and it is one of relatively few Italian airfields to combine a hard-surfaced, lit runway with an ILS in a mountain setting.
The airfield lies at Saint-Christophe (AO), just outside Aosta, in the Valle d'Aosta region of north-western Italy, at coordinates 45.7383N 7.3675E. Nus (AO) lies around 8 km to the east. The field's elevation of 1,785 ft places it well above the surrounding valley floor plain of much of northern Italy, and pilots should expect the airfield to be enclosed by rising alpine terrain typical of the Valle d'Aosta.
The airfield has a single physical runway, 09/27, of hard construction and lit. Runway 09 has a landing distance of 5,471 ft, while runway 27 measures 5,128 ft and is equipped with an ILS.
An AFIS (aerodrome flight information service) operates on 119.95 MHz. The field is served by the Aosta VOR/DME, ident SCS, on 109.25 MHz, channel 29Y, providing an additional navigation reference for arrivals and departures. Runway 27 is equipped with an ILS for instrument approaches.
Aosta Corrado Gex Airport operates with an AFIS rather than a full air traffic control service, reflecting its status as a regional airfield. The ILS on runway 27 and the co-located VOR/DME support instrument flying into what is otherwise a visually demanding mountain airfield.
