  • Yinchuan Xihuayuan Airport was the former main airport of Yinchuan, Ningxia, China. It was built on orders of Ningxia governor Ma Hongkui in 1935 as a military airport with a gravel runway. The airport was closed from September 1949 to September 1958. In 1958, the airport was renovated to welcome the establishment of the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, of which Yinchuan became the capital. After the renovation, the Xihuayuan Airport had a gravel runway with a length of 1415 meters and a width of 40 meters. On 20 October 1958, a CAAC Il-14 passenger plane landed at the airport, marking the official resumption of flights at the airport. In September 1986, the airport was expanded and became a 3C-class airport, being able to handle aircraft like the BAe 146 under 50 tons. The airport ceased operations in September 1997 due to the facilities being in need of upgrading and lack of expansion room. Its function was taken over by Yinchuan Hedong Airport. The airport was the only airport in China serving a provincial capital that still had a gravel runway. At night, the runway was lit using lanterns, and during the rainy season the airport would often flood. The airport terminal was preserved as a protected cultural heritage site by the Yinchuan Cultural Relics Department. (en)
  • 銀川西花園機場是寧夏回族自治區銀川市歷史上的一個機場。該機場由時任中華民國寧夏省主席馬鴻逵在1935年(民國24年)下令修建。機場是一個軍用機場,由第11軍168師駐紮把守,跑道為碎石。1945年(民國34年),馬下命讓士兵對跑道進行修繕,在跑道鋪上了碎石細沙建成臨時機場使用。機場在1949年9月至1958年9月期間停用。 1958年,西花園機場被重新修繕,以迎接寧夏回族自治區成立。修繕後的西花園機場擁有一條長1415米、寬40米的砾石跑道。10月20日13時41分,中國民航一架伊爾-14客機降落在機場,標誌著機場正式恢復通航。 1986年9月,機場完成了擴建,成為3C級機場,可用於起降BAe 146及50噸以下的飛機。因機場基礎設備簡陋、周邊淨空環境差等原因,機場在1997年9月停止營運。其業務被銀川河東機場取代。 (zh)
