Évora Airport

Évora Airport

is a municipal airport that serves Évora, Portugal. Among the services available, are a Flight Information Service (FIS), a non-directional beacon (NDB) and sunrise to sunset operation. The airport has two runways, the main runway being 01/19. The second runway, 08/26, is a short grass strip that is rarely used.

A flying school ("Aeronautical Academy of Europe") owned by CAE, which is closely related to the Dutch "Nationale Luchtvaart School" (National Flying School), is based at the airport and is responsible for most aircraft movements. It is also a popular site for parachuting, especially during weekends. There's also glider activity from the airport. Évora airport is also host to an airshow which is held every other year.
