I guess that knowing very little about the island countries we are landing at is one of the major reasons I chose to do the trip. It is unlikely that I would have ever gone exploring to these far away place as a tourist, so this is an opportunity which, after much consideration, I could not refuse.
A couple of photos from the internet.
The airstrip, which is 10,000' long and I read a note from a round-the-world flyer in 2007 who said to land 3000' long to avoid the rough surface and save your tyres.
Think they have had a devastating tsunami since then and it is probably in 100% condition.
