About Sir Bani Yas Airport

Overview

Sir Bani Yas Airport serves the Sir Bani Yas Island region in the United Arab Emirates, located at coordinates 24.283611, 52.580278. As a medium airport situated at 25 feet above mean sea level, it provides crucial aviation infrastructure for the island's transportation needs.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation of 25 ft MSL suggests minimal terrain-related wind variations and generally stable atmospheric conditions. Being located in the UAE, pilots can expect hot and arid climate conditions with potential for significant temperature fluctuations and occasional visibility challenges from desert dust.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (13/31) measuring 9,272 feet in length, constructed with asphalt surface. Its substantial runway length accommodates a wide range of aircraft types and provides flexibility for different operational requirements in the region.

Approach Considerations

Runway 13/31 orientation indicates potential crosswind scenarios, with pilots needing to be prepared for wind variations during approach and landing. The airport's geographical position and runway alignment suggest careful wind assessment will be critical for safe operations, particularly during seasonal wind pattern shifts.
