About Codrington Airport

Overview

Codrington Airport serves Codrington, located in Antigua and Barbuda. Positioned at an elevation of 15 feet above mean sea level, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region. The airport's coordinates at 17.635799, -61.828602 place it in a strategic Caribbean location.

Flying Conditions

Being in the Caribbean, Codrington Airport experiences typical tropical maritime weather patterns with consistent trade winds. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal activity and occasional maritime weather systems typical of the region. The airport's low elevation of 15 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-induced weather variations.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (10/28) with a length of 1,640 feet, suitable for smaller aircraft operations. Its coastal location likely presents standard marine environmental considerations such as potential crosswinds and variable visibility conditions. The runway orientation suggests alignment with predominant wind directions in the area.

Approach Considerations

Runway 10/28's relatively short length requires precise approach and landing techniques for pilots. Given the airport's geographic position, wind assessment during approach will be critical for safe operations. Pilots should be prepared for potential maritime wind conditions that could influence landing and takeoff performance.

Data Sources & Accuracy: Airport information sourced from OurAirports.com, a collaborative database of worldwide airport data. Weather data from official aviation weather services including NOAA Aviation Weather Center and international METAR/TAF providers. Information is updated regularly but pilots should always verify current conditions and NOTAMs through official channels before flight operations.
