New York Skyports Inc (6N7) is in New York, New York on the East River. Field elevation is 0 ft MSL. No runways are listed, so this is a seaplane base rather than a paved strip. No tower is published. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the current FAA Chart Supplement before you plan the arrival. The published remarks matter here. The East River has a south-southwest current of 2.6 mph. Boat traffic is heavy. Pilots must not fly over the 59th Street Bridge. Taxi 1,000 feet offshore on the Manhattan side before starting the takeoff roll. A proving flight with an authorized member of the New England Seaplanes Pilot's Association is required before using the base. Three-bladed propellers are required on all seaplanes.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. No tie-downs or overnight stays are available. For clearance delivery, contact New York Approach at 800-645-3206. This is a dense urban river environment. Expect close traffic coordination. Watch the bridge, river traffic and shoreline obstacles carefully.
