Banjul
Banjul is a conditional A220-family research candidate. The roughly 3,064 NM direct geography does not establish nonstop performance. Current Gambia AIS and NOTAM, wet-runway and obstacle performance, actual mission fuel, seasonal winds and suitable alternates still require verification. The airport coordinate used is a geospatial reference, not a certified airport reference point.
Evidence and limitations
The portfolio review identifies further evidence to obtain. End-to-end routing, current notices and aircraft-specific performance have not been cleared; this remains a research question.
Distance is not an operating range calculation. This material does not establish airport, airspace, fuel, payload or regulatory feasibility.

Data position: NO RUNWAY EVIDENCE — SCREEN ONLY
Runway unknown
What is not yet proven: 2016–2025 actual route winds, two-way validated IFR paths, OEM trip fuel and A220 runway performance.
The airport evidence makes this a research candidate, not an operating or safety approval.

At the river’s wide mouth
Banjul sits where the Gambia River opens towards the Atlantic. Around Albert Market, fabric, produce and everyday bargaining fill the streets; the waterfront gives the city another, more spacious scale to explore.
