About Stevanus Rumbewas Airport

Overview

Stevanus Rumbewas Airport serves the town of Serui on the island of Yapen in Indonesia. Located at coordinates -1.828420, 136.062402, this medium-sized airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region. The airport sits at a low elevation of 20 feet mean sea level, typical of coastal Indonesian island airports.

Flying Conditions

As an airport in the Indonesian archipelago, Stevanus Rumbewas experiences tropical maritime weather conditions with high humidity and potential for rapidly changing conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential convective activity and localized weather variations common to island environments. The low elevation minimizes significant terrain-induced weather complexities.

Notable Features

The airport's location on Yapen Island presents unique geographic considerations for pilots, with surrounding maritime terrain and potential marine layer developments. Its position in eastern Indonesia means potential exposure to complex local wind patterns and occasional tropical weather systems. The medium airport classification suggests it can accommodate regional and smaller commercial aircraft.

Approach Considerations

While specific runway details are not provided, pilots should prepare for potential challenging approach conditions typical of island airports. Standard maritime approach procedures and careful attention to local wind conditions are recommended. Pilots should expect potential visibility limitations due to the tropical coastal environment and conduct thorough pre-flight weather assessments.
