German Olano Air Base, designated with IATA code PAL and ICAO code SKPQ, is a Colombian Air Force installation located near La Dorada in the Caldas department of Colombia. The base serves primarily military purposes under the Colombian Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Colombiana) but also supports limited civil aviation operations in the region. La Dorada is a key commercial hub situated along the Magdalena River, and the airfield provides air access to an area where road and river transport are the dominant means of connectivity. The base has historically supported military logistics, surveillance, and counter-narcotics operations in the Magdalena Medio corridor. Due to its dual military and limited civilian role, passenger services and commercial airline operations are minimal. The facility primarily handles military aircraft, government flights, and general aviation rather than scheduled commercial traffic.
