Alférez FAP David Figueroa Fernandini Airport serves the city of Huánuco in central Peru, sitting at an elevation of approximately 1,887 meters (6,191 feet) above sea level in the Huallaga River valley. The airport is named in honor of a Peruvian Air Force officer and functions as the primary commercial air gateway to the Huánuco region. The airport handles domestic flights connecting Huánuco to Lima and other Peruvian cities. Its high-altitude location and surrounding terrain require pilots to follow specific approach and departure procedures. The facility supports both civilian and limited military aviation operations under the administration of CORPAC, Peru's civil aviation infrastructure authority.
