About Berdyansk Airport

Overview

Berdyansk Airport serves the southeastern Ukrainian coastal region, located in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast near the Sea of Azov. As a medium airport with an elevation of 171 feet mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and potential military/utility operations in this strategic maritime area.

Flying Conditions

The airport's coastal location suggests potential for variable wind conditions, with the single runway (09/27) oriented to accommodate prevailing wind patterns. Given its proximity to the Sea of Azov, pilots should anticipate potential maritime weather influences including potential rapid visibility and wind shifts, particularly during seasonal transition periods.

Notable Features

The 8,202-foot concrete runway indicates capability for handling medium-sized aircraft with substantial operational flexibility. The airport's geographic position at coordinates 46.814999, 36.758099 places it in a relatively flat coastal terrain, which generally suggests minimal significant terrain challenges for approach and departure procedures.

Approach Considerations

Runway 09/27's considerable length provides good operational margins for most aircraft classes, with westerly and easterly approach options. Pilots should prepare for potential crosswind conditions given the airport's coastal positioning, and maintain standard vigilance for local meteorological variations typical of maritime environments.
