About Yancheng Nanyang International Airport

Overview

Yancheng Nanyang International Airport serves the Tinghu district of Yancheng, located in eastern China's Jiangsu province. The airport operates as a medium-sized international airport, positioned at a low elevation of 10 feet mean sea level. Its strategic location provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and commercial operations in the coastal region.

Flying Conditions

The airport's low elevation of 10 ft MSL indicates a relatively flat terrain with minimal altitude-related atmospheric variations. Coastal proximity suggests potential for marine layer formations, humidity, and wind patterns typical of eastern Chinese maritime regions. Pilots should anticipate potential visibility and wind shear conditions consistent with the airport's geographic setting.

Notable Features

The single concrete runway (04/22) extends 9,186 feet, accommodating a wide range of aircraft types and operational requirements. Its significant length allows for versatile use by regional and international carriers, providing operational flexibility for different aircraft performance characteristics. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approach and departure phases.

Approach Considerations

Runway 04/22's substantial length of 9,186 feet provides ample space for most commercial and regional aircraft operations. The concrete surface offers reliable braking and landing performance across various meteorological conditions. Pilots should prepare standard approach procedures, maintaining awareness of potential coastal wind variations that might influence landing and takeoff dynamics.
