The two parallel runways ameasure 6,000' x 100' each surfaced with decomposed shale and oriented roughly northwest to southeast. The lines indicate taxiways and roads with hardstands and "U" shaped revetments. To the east are "scattered tent area" and several "hangers" (Butler hangers) and roads. At the far right (east) is the edge of Jackson Airport (7 Mile Drome). The road off the lower edge (south) connects to Port Moresby.
