About Edward Bodden Little Cayman Airfield
Overview
Edward Bodden Little Cayman Airfield serves the smallest of the Cayman Islands, providing critical transportation infrastructure for Blossom Village and the surrounding region. Located at coordinates 19.660161, -80.088826, this medium airport is essential for connecting Little Cayman to other regional destinations. The airfield sits at a low elevation of 3 ft mean sea level, typical of Caribbean island airports.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential for variable wind conditions and marine-influenced weather patterns. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind challenges on the single runway 10/28, which measures 3,275 feet with a grass surface. The tropical maritime environment may produce rapid weather changes, requiring careful preflight planning and in-flight awareness.
Notable Features
The grass runway (GRS) represents a unique surface characteristic that demands specific landing and takeoff techniques compared to paved runways. Its orientation of 10/28 indicates the primary approach axes are aligned approximately along the east-west axis. The relatively short runway length of 3,275 feet requires precise aircraft performance calculations and heightened pilot technique.
Approach Considerations
Approach to Edward Bodden Little Cayman Airfield will require careful consideration of the grass surface and potential wind variations. The runway's east-west orientation suggests potential for direct crosswinds from northerly or southerly wind directions. Pilots should conduct thorough performance calculations considering the grass surface and ensure appropriate aircraft capabilities for this medium airport environment.
