About Nashville International Airport
Overview
Nashville International Airport serves as a major commercial airport for Middle Tennessee, located in the southeastern United States. Situated at 599 feet above mean sea level with coordinates 36.124500, -86.678200, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Nashville metropolitan area. As a large airport with multiple substantial runways, KBNA supports significant commercial and potentially general aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Nashville's airport elevation and geographic location suggest potential for variable weather conditions across seasonal transitions. The airport's multiple concrete runways (02C/20C, 02L/20R, 02R/20L) and one asphalt runway (13/31) provide operational flexibility during changing meteorological conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and crosswind scenarios given the airport's diverse runway orientation.
Notable Features
The airport features four runways with significant length variations, with runway 13/31 being the longest at 11,030 feet. This extensive runway infrastructure allows for accommodating a wide range of aircraft types and provides substantial operational resilience. The varied runway configurations enable efficient air traffic management and support complex aviation requirements.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection will likely depend on prevailing wind conditions, with the 13/31 runway offering the most extensive landing surface. The three concrete runways (02C/20C, 02L/20R, 02R/20L) range between 7,703 and 8,001 feet, providing consistent landing options for most commercial aircraft. Pilots should carefully evaluate current wind vectors and runway conditions during approach planning.
