Location
Putussibau, Indonesia
Pangsuma Airport (IATA: PSU, ICAO: WIOP) is a small regional airport serving Putussibau, a town in the East Kutai Regency of West Kalimantan province on Borneo Island, Indonesia.

The airport supports light regional aircraft operations and serves as a vital link for residents, government officials, and travelers accessing the upper Kapuas River region. Flights typically connect Putussibau to Pontianak, the provincial capital of West Kalimantan.
