About Amami Airport
Overview
Amami Airport serves the Amami Islands region in southern Japan, located at 28.430599, 129.712997 with an elevation of 27 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for this island locale, supporting regional and potentially inter-island aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 88.9% of observations indicating clear flying weather. Prevailing winds from the north at an average of 8.9 knots create generally stable atmospheric conditions, with maximum recorded winds reaching 30 knots. Temperature variations range from 9°C to 33°C, with an average of 21.7°C, suggesting mild and consistent climate characteristics.
Notable Features
The single runway 03/21 spans 6,560 feet with an asphalt surface, positioned to take advantage of the region's consistent wind patterns. Its geographic position in the Amami Islands introduces potential maritime weather influences, with extremely low occurrence of fog (0.1% of observations) and consistently high visibility averages around 10 statute miles.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21 demonstrates favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of only 5.5 knots. Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions particularly during January, September, and December. The low crosswind and high percentage of clear flying conditions make this a relatively straightforward airport for approach and landing.
