About Yeosu Airport

Overview

Yeosu Airport serves the coastal city of Yeosu in South Korea, situated at an elevation of 53 feet MSL. As a medium-sized airport, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the southern coastal region, supporting regional and potentially limited commercial aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

Located at latitude 34.842300 and longitude 127.616997, Yeosu Airport experiences maritime climate conditions typical of South Korea's southern coastal areas. Pilots should anticipate potential variability in wind conditions due to the airport's proximity to the ocean, which can influence approach and departure procedures.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (17/35) measuring 6,890 feet in length, constructed with an asphalt surface. Its coastal location suggests potential for crosswind and marine layer challenges, requiring pilots to maintain heightened situational awareness during approach and landing.

Approach Considerations

The single runway (17/35) provides flexibility for landings based on prevailing wind conditions. With the runway's substantial 6,890-foot length, the airport can accommodate a range of aircraft sizes typical of medium-sized regional airports, offering reasonable operational margins for approach and landing procedures.
