About Weihai Dashuibo Airport

Overview

Weihai Dashuibo Airport serves the coastal city of Weihai in Shandong Province, China. Located at coordinates 37.187099, 122.228996, this medium-sized airport provides essential air transportation services for the region. The airport sits at an elevation of 145 feet above mean sea level, facilitating regional and potentially short-haul commercial operations.

Flying Conditions

Being a coastal airport, Weihai Dashuibo experiences maritime influences that can create variable weather conditions. The airport's proximity to the sea may result in potential wind shear, fog, and rapid visibility changes, particularly during seasonal transition periods. Pilots should anticipate wind patterns that could significantly impact approach and landing characteristics on the 8,530-foot concrete runway.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (02/20) with substantial length at 8,530 feet, accommodating a range of aircraft types. Its moderate elevation and concrete surface provide relatively stable operational conditions. The geographic location suggests potential terrain interactions from nearby coastal and potentially hilly surroundings that could influence local wind patterns and approach dynamics.

Approach Considerations

Runway 02/20's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. Pilots should prepare for potential maritime weather influences that could affect wind conditions and visibility. Standard instrument approach procedures would be recommended, with careful attention to local topographical and meteorological factors specific to the Weihai coastal region.
