About Tokushima Awaodori Airport / JMSDF Tokushima Air Base
Tokushima Awaodori Airport / JMSDF Tokushima Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the JP AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Tokushima Awaodori Airport serves both civilian and Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) operations on the island of Shikoku. Located in Tokushima Prefecture at 26 feet mean sea level, the airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the region with a single asphalt runway measuring 6,560 feet in length.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly favorable visual flight conditions, with 90.3% of observations reporting VFR weather. Winds consistently blow from the west at an average of 8.7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 28 knots. Winter months of January, November, and December offer the most stable and consistent VFR flying conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's coastal location on Shikoku Island suggests potential for marine-influenced weather patterns. Runway 11/29 demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and an average crosswind of just 4.3 knots. Temperature ranges from 0°C to 34°C indicate significant seasonal variation.
Approach Considerations
With a westerly prevailing wind, pilots can expect generally predictable approach conditions on runway 11/29. The consistent wind profile and high percentage of VFR conditions make this a relatively straightforward airport for instrument and visual approaches. Pilots should remain aware of potential wind variations, though crosswinds remain minimal on average.
