About Juwata International Airport / Suharnoko Harbani AFB
Juwata International Airport / Suharnoko Harbani AFB is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the ID AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Juwata International Airport serves the city of Tarakan in Indonesia, located on the island of Borneo. As a medium-sized airport with both civilian and military (Suharnoko Harbani AFB) operations, it provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the northeastern Kalimantan region. The airport's strategic coastal location offers important connectivity for the surrounding maritime area.
Flying Conditions
Situated at a low elevation of 23 feet mean sea level, Juwata International Airport experiences typical tropical maritime weather conditions characteristic of Indonesia's coastal regions. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity, variable wind conditions, and potential convective activity common to equatorial environments. The airport's proximity to the ocean can generate localized weather phenomena that may impact flight operations.
Notable Features
The single asphalt runway (06/24) extends 7,382 feet, providing substantial landing and takeoff capacity for medium-sized aircraft. Its geographic position at coordinates 3.325145, 117.564169 places the airport in a relatively flat coastal terrain, which generally supports stable approach and departure conditions. The airport's dual civil and military designation suggests potential for diverse aviation activities.
Approach Considerations
Runway 06/24 offers flexibility for arrivals and departures based on prevailing wind conditions. Pilots should conduct standard terrain and wind assessments during flight planning, paying particular attention to potential maritime wind shifts. The substantial runway length of 7,382 feet provides good operational margins for most medium-sized aircraft types.
