El Hierro Airport (IATA: VDE, ICAO: GCHI) is an airport located 9 km (5.6 mi) northeast[1] of Valverde. It is the only existing airport on the Island of El Hierro, Spain. It was inaugurated on December 1972 and it is called Aeropuerto de los Cangrejos.
However, in spite of its size and its limited timetable, it was the airport which had the most increased in number of passengers and merchandise in the Canary Islands in the year 2007.
The air traffic is national, and the flights are normally from/to Tenerife North, Gran Canaria and La Palma. In 2011, the airport posted 170.225 passengers, 4.674 operations and 135 tons of merchandise.[2]
The first aeronautical event in the island was on December 12, 1955 and it was the first rescue operation by the SAR in the Canary Islands too. It consisted of an evacuation of an ill person, which had to be transported to Tenerife in an helicopter.[3]
There was a real necessity of having an airport in the island, so in 1962 some studies to locate the best place for the future airport were started, but the orography of the island is very complex, and there were not too much places available for that aim.
Finally, the engineers decided to place the airport in a place called "Llano de los Cangrejos" located in the northwest of the Island, near its capital, Valverde.
Works to build the new installations began on 1967, building a runway (16-34), a small passenger terminal and an aircraft platform. Once the works were finished, on November 11, 1972 the airport was inaugurated and dedicated to national air traffic of passengers and merchandise. It was classified as an 2-C category (OACI) or airport of third category.
The airplane which made the first landing in the island was an Do-27 of the Spanish Air Force, but the official inauguration was made by an DC-3 which carried the minister Julio Salvador y Días-Benjumena.
The first regular connection was open by Iberia, starting with the operations on December 19, 2012, with an Fokker F-27 commanded by Vicente Ramos Hernández, which made the route from Tenerife North - El Hierro - Tenerife North.
During 1989 and 1990, a new control tower was made on the west side of the runway, demolishing the old one, at the same time, a new passengers terminal was built. In July, 1992, instead of Iberia, BinterCanarias started to operate the route from Tenerife North to El Hierro with an ATR-72. For that reason, the runway had to be extended until 1205 meters (3953 ft). This extension allowed an increase in the number of passengers and operations.
The control tower is located in the western part of the island, opposite to the terminal. There an air controller and the maintenance technicians. In 2008, works to renovate the control tower were started, with the aim of modernize the installations. At present, it has the SACTA 3.5 system, which allows radar visualization of the radar data, and voice equipment model CD-30. It is envisaged make a new control tower in 2011. The Airport belongts to the category 2-C (OACI), the Instrumentation systems for landing feature VFR with PAPI.
