About Normans Cay Airport

Overview

Normans Cay Airport serves the island of Normans Cay in the Bahamas, located at coordinates 24.594299, -76.820198. As a medium airport situated at 8 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for this coastal Bahamian location. The airport supports regional transportation and potentially serves local maritime and island-hopping operations.

Flying Conditions

Being in the Bahamas, Normans Cay experiences tropical maritime weather characterized by consistent trade winds and potential seasonal variations. The airport's low elevation at 8 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-related wind turbulence, though pilots should anticipate potential sea-level atmospheric conditions. Seasonal hurricane and tropical storm potential should be considered during approach and departure planning.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (03/21) with an asphalt surface measuring 4,703 feet in length. Its geographic position on Normans Cay indicates a coastal environment, which may introduce unique wind dynamics and visibility considerations. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges depending on prevailing wind directions.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions when selecting runway 03 or 21, considering the 4,703-foot asphalt surface. The airport's coastal location may introduce variable wind patterns, necessitating careful approach planning. Standard maritime airport considerations regarding potential wind shear and sea-level meteorological conditions apply.
