Situated at a low elevation of 17 ft MSL, the airport supports regional aviation with its 6,561 ft asphalt runway capable of handling medium-sized aircraft.
Flying Conditions
Weather observations indicate predominantly favorable flying conditions, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions present 39.8% of the time and Marginal VFR conditions another 36.2%. The prevailing northerly winds average 13.5 knots, with occasional stronger gusts up to 29 knots, and temperature ranges from 11°C to 33°C, creating generally stable atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway (01/19) is well-aligned with the predominant wind direction, with wind conditions favorable 100% of the time. Located at coordinates 27.836382, 128.881356, the airport sits in a maritime environment typical of Japan's southern islands, which can introduce unique local wind and visibility characteristics.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect consistent wind conditions from the north, with an average crosswind of 7.2 knots on the primary runway. The most consistent VFR flying conditions occur in January, September, and October, offering optimal periods for operations with typically excellent 10 statute mile visibility and minimal meteorological restrictions.
