Desiderio Army Airfield is a military airfield within Camp Humphreys, a large United States Army garrison near Pyeongtaek in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. It offers a substantial paved runway and full radio and approach services, making it a significant fixed base within the region's military airspace.
Desiderio Army Airfield, designated A-511, serves Camp Humphreys, a major United States Army installation near Pyeongtaek in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. As a military field embedded within a large garrison, it is of interest to simulator pilots wanting to fly into a busy operational US Army airfield in the Republic of Korea, complete with its own tower, ground and operations frequencies.
The airfield lies at Camp Humphreys, Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and falls within the approach and departure jurisdiction of Osan Approach/Departure, which handles traffic in and out of the field on 127.9 MHz. This places Desiderio within a busy area of military-controlled airspace shared with nearby Osan Air Base.
The airfield has a single physical runway aligned 14/32, hard-surfaced and lit. The 32 threshold gives a landing distance of 7559 ft, while the 14 threshold is recorded at 6658 ft, reflecting differing usable lengths from each end. Field elevation is 26 ft.
Desiderio Army Airfield is served by a range of dedicated frequencies: Osan Approach/Departure on 127.9 MHz for approach and departure control, an approach control frequency (ACP) on 120 MHz, Brickwall ATIS on 108.2 MHz for automated terminal information, Desiderio Ground on 119.5 MHz, Desiderio Ground Operations on 37.95 MHz, PMSV Metro on 37.3 MHz, and Desiderio Tower on 34.95 MHz. No instrument landing system is available at the field.
Desiderio Army Airfield continues to operate as the airfield for Camp Humphreys, supporting United States Army aviation activity in South Korea, with dedicated tower, ground and operations frequencies in use for day-to-day flying.
