An adequate aerodrome is one which is available at the anticipated time of use, and has navaids, ATC safety cover etc.

A suitable aerodrome is an adequate aerodrome with weather reports/forecasts that are likely to be at or above the relevant operating minima.

Not sure what is required for approval but suitable SOPs, engineering support and experience are sure to be in there (along with suitable aircraft)
