About Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport
Overview
Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport serves the major port city of Dalian in northeastern China's Liaoning Province. Located at 38.965719°N, 121.538477°E, this large airport operates at an elevation of 107 feet mean sea level (MSL). The airport supports both commercial passenger and cargo operations for the important maritime and industrial region around Dalian.
Flying Conditions
Situated on the Liaodong Peninsula, the airport experiences significant seasonal weather variations typical of a northern coastal climate. Winter months can bring cold temperatures and potential snow or ice conditions, while summer periods may involve periods of reduced visibility from maritime fog. Pilots should anticipate variable wind conditions given the airport's proximity to the Yellow Sea.
Notable Features
The primary runway (10/28) is a substantial concrete surface measuring 10,827 feet in length, capable of supporting large commercial aircraft operations. Its orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges, particularly during seasonal wind shifts. The airport's coastal location means terrain transitions can involve maritime approach characteristics with potential wind shear considerations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28's extended length provides flexibility for diverse aircraft types and operational requirements. Approach planning should account for potential maritime weather influences, including potential visibility restrictions and wind gradient effects. Pilots should maintain heightened situational awareness regarding local terrain and coastal meteorological conditions during arrival and departure procedures.
