About Nantong Xingdong International Airport

Overview

Nantong Xingdong International Airport serves the Nantong (Tongzhou) region in eastern China, situated at a low elevation of 16 feet mean sea level. As a medium-sized international airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the Jiangsu province, supporting regional and potentially international commercial and cargo operations.

Flying Conditions

Located near the eastern coast of China, the airport experiences typical maritime climate conditions with potential for variable wind patterns. The single runway's substantial length of 11,155 feet provides excellent operational flexibility for most commercial aircraft types, with concrete surface construction ensuring reliable ground handling across seasonal variations.

Notable Features

The airport's 18/36 oriented runway indicates a north-south alignment, which is typical for airports in this geographical region. Its low elevation of 16 feet MSL suggests minimal terrain interference and relatively straightforward approach and departure procedures for pilots navigating the coastal landscape.

Approach Considerations

With a single runway of significant length, pilots can expect standard north-south approach options depending on prevailing wind conditions. The concrete runway surface at 11,155 feet provides ample space for most aircraft categories, allowing for comfortable landing and takeoff operations with good margin for error.
