Wirasaba airbase, 115 hectares military airbase owned by the Air Force (TNI AU), will be converted into commercial airport as written by the Jakarta post. It is located in Wirasaba village, Bukateja district, Purbalingga regency, Central Java.
Four nearby regents which are Banjarnegara, Banyumas, Purbalingga and Wonosobo have stated their support along with one of Indonesia’s pioneer airlines, PT Asi Pudjiastuti Aviation, locally known as Susi Air.
Principle permit for the conversion of the Wirasaba Airbase into commercial or civilian airport had been issued since April 2007 with the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on April 30, 2007, between the Air Force and the regency administration. Due to technical issues, the conversion has been delayed until now.
