Borme Airstrip

Borme Airstrip (ICAO: WAJY) is a small general aviation facility located in the Borme area of Papua province, Indonesia. It serves as a vital access point for remote highland communities that are otherwise difficult to reach by road due to the rugged mountainous terrain of the region. The airstrip primarily supports missionary aviation, humanitarian aid, and basic cargo operations, connecting isolated local populations to larger towns and services. Aircraft operating here are typically small, single-engine planes suited to short, unpaved strips at elevation. Given the extremely limited infrastructure of the surrounding region, the airstrip plays a critical logistical role for local communities, medical supply deliveries, and occasional government operations in this part of Papua.
