CHECK THE AIR FREIGHT RATES TO SDD |
Lubango Mukanka Airport(IATA code: SDD, ICAO code: FNUB) is an airport serving Lubango, the capital city of the Huíla Province in Angola. The Lubango non-directional beacon (Ident: SB) is located 2.4 kilometres (1.5 mi) east-northeast of the Rwy 28 threshold. Because of Lubango Mukanka Airport's high elevation of 5,778 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at SDD. Combined with a high temperature, this could make SDD a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
The closest airport to it is Vila Roçadas/Xangongo Airport (XGN), which is located 156 miles (252 kilometers) SE of SDD. The airport currently has only 1 runway.
