re: Wrong location!

What you can see on the map IS indeed about 6km east from the town center on Juba Road. So the shown location is perfectly right.

Surface

Prevailing wind is from the south-east. A drainage ditch has been dug around the north end in April 2014 by Medecins Sans Frontieres, who have a hospital alongside the airstrip. They are also regularly resurfacing and levelling the airstrip, which is made of local soil that becomes very slippery when wet and easily allows sinking. They have regular flights by Cessna Caravan, and in April 2014 have also received an Avro Andover and a Fokker 27 and 50, though these larger aircraft attempt landing only after at least one full day without rain. Samaritan's Purse land their DC3 here, and the UN/WFP regularly use Caravans and Twin Otters.

Wrong location!

The location shown is utterly wrong. Yei Airport is situated on the opposite side of Yei town. From the town center, it's about 6km east on Juba Road.
