Remote highland airstrip serving Pegunungan Bintang communities.
Location
Pegunungan Bintang Regency, Indonesia
Maksum Airstrip is a small general aviation facility located in Pegunungan Bintang Regency, a remote mountainous region in Papua province, Indonesia. The airstrip serves as a vital link for isolated communities in this rugged highland terrain where road infrastructure is extremely limited or nonexistent.
Like many airstrips in the Papua highlands, Maksum primarily supports missionary aviation, humanitarian supply flights, and basic connectivity for local residents. Small bush planes operated by organizations such as Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) and similar operators are typical users of such facilities in this region.
Getting to & from
Ground transport options beyond the airstrip are extremely limited due to the absence of developed road networks in this remote highland area.
