Airport information:

San Francisco International Airport is a major international airport located [[Distance::21 km]] south of downtown San Francisco, California, United States, adjacent to the cities of Millbrae and San Bruno in unincorporated San Mateo County. It is often referred to as SFO. ==Climatology== Dry-summer subtropical ”Mediterranean" climate (Köppen climate classification [[KCC::Csb|'''''Csb''''']]) - characterized by warm, dry summers and mild winters. During the summer, rising hot air in California's interior valleys creates a low pressure area that draws winds from the North Pacific High through the Golden Gate, which creates the city's characteristic cool winds and fog. The fog is less pronounced in eastern neighborhoods and during the late summer and early fall, which is the warmest time of the year. ==Maps== ===Terrain=== {{#ask:[[{{PAGENAME}}]] |?Coordinates |format=googlemaps |zoom=10 |type=physical |icon=Airport-terminal.png}} ===Airport Layout=== {{#ask:[[{{PAGENAME}}]] |?Coordinates |format=googlemaps |zoom=13 |type=satellite |icon=Airport-runway.png}} {{APT Hazards}} ==Accidents & Serious Incidents at or in vicinity of {{PAGENAME}}== {{#ask:[[Category:Accidents and Incidents]][[Airport::{{PAGENAME}}]] |default=None on SKYbrary |?Synopsis= |format=ul |limit=5}}
