A concrete parking apron and taxiway have also been constructed (annotation 3, Figure 2). Construction continues through various stages to I at which time it appears that the air- field is probably complete (Figures 3 through 8).

The E/W runway is approximately 2,500 feet long by 500 feet wide and has a natural surface. 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/03/28: CIA 6 1A0013000 00573 25X1 TOP SECREr0r70011 25X1 TOP Sfflfted F r Release 2003/03/28 : CIA-RDP78TO5161AO013000 Figure I 20x N/S & E/W Natural surface landing areas.
