It is known that Ewer Airport was first built by the Asmat Regency Government. However, the development of the airport itself was carried out by the central government. This airport runway is 1,650 meters x 30 meters long so that it can be passed by the ATR 72-600 aircraft as the President and his entourage this time. In addition, this airport can also be used for landing sites for other aircraft, both cargo and passenger purposes.
