J F Mitchell Airport serves the small island of Bequia in the Grenadines, part of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, with a single hard-surfaced runway laid across a narrow strip of land close to the sea. It is a straightforward but scenic destination for VFR flying, handling light inter-island traffic to and from the neighbouring islands.
J F Mitchell Airport, also known by its IATA code BQU, is the airfield serving Bequia, one of the Grenadine islands that form part of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. It is a small but active facility supporting scheduled inter-island air services, making it a useful and visually striking stop for pilots exploring the Windward Islands by light aircraft.
The airport lies on Bequia in the Grenadines archipelago, within the airspace of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. It sits close to the coastline, with the surrounding terrain and sea providing natural boundaries to the circuit area typical of small Caribbean island strips.
J F Mitchell Airport has a single physical runway, 12/30, surfaced in hard material and measuring 3611 feet in length. The field elevation is 13 feet above mean sea level, and there is no ILS approach available.
Ground movements are handled on 121.9 MHz, with the tower operating on 118.45 MHz.
J F Mitchell Airport continues to provide scheduled airline service linking Bequia with neighbouring islands, functioning as a medium-sized airport within the regional network of the Grenadines.
