About Smyrna Airport
Overview
Smyrna Airport (KMQY) is a medium-sized airport located near Nashville, Tennessee, serving general aviation and regional transportation needs. Situated at 543 feet above mean sea level with two substantial runways, the airport offers significant operational flexibility for pilots traversing the mid-southern United States.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Smyrna are predominantly VFR, with approximately 72.6% of observations showing favorable flying conditions. Seasonal temperatures range dramatically from -12°C to 33°C, with an average of 11.4°C, requiring pilots to anticipate potential thermal and density altitude variations. Visibility typically remains excellent at 9.2 statute miles, with only 2.9% of observations showing reduced visibility.
Notable Features
Both runways (01/19 and 14/32) are constructed of asphalt and provide substantial length, with Runway 14/32 offering an extended 8,036-foot surface. The airport's location experiences predominantly southerly winds averaging 6.9 knots, with calm conditions occurring 29.2% of the time. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, minimizing crosswind challenges for pilots.
Approach Considerations
September, October, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations. Average crosswind components remain minimal, measuring 3.9 knots for Runway 01/19 and 3.8 knots for Runway 14/32. Pilots should expect generally stable approach conditions with high probability of visual meteorological conditions throughout the year.
