Remote airstrip serving the highland interior of Sulawesi.
Location
Wuasa, Poso Regency, Indonesia
Wuasa Airport (ICAO: WAMU) is a small, unpaved airstrip located in the Wuasa area of Poso Regency in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, on the island of Sulawesi (formerly known as Celebes). It serves as a vital link for the isolated highland communities of the Napu Valley, where road access can be difficult and time-consuming.
The airport supports light aircraft operations and is primarily used for missionary aviation, charter flights, and occasional government or relief flights. Organizations such as Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) have historically operated in remote areas of Central Sulawesi, connecting communities like Wuasa to larger centers such as Palu.
Given its remote location and limited infrastructure, the facility has no commercial airline scheduled services and operates on a small scale. It plays an important humanitarian and logistical role for surrounding villages that are otherwise challenging to reach.
