Airport Overview
Onoun Civil Airfield is in Chuuk State on Onoun Island, also known as Ulul, at the southwestern corner of Namonuito Atoll, roughly 168 miles (270 km) northwest of Chuuk International Airport and 135 miles (217 km) north of Houk. It is usually served by Caroline Islands Air. To utilize the airstrip, operators must apply for the appropriate flight permits with the FSM Division of Civil Aviation. Once approval has been granted, the operator can contact the Chuuk Port Authority Airport Manager to arrange for on-call personnel to be present at the airfield.
Namonuito Atoll, also called the Magur Islands, is the largest atoll in the Federated States of Micronesia and the second largest in the Micronesian region. The atoll is roughly triangular and about 51 miles across at its widest point. Onoun, with a total land area of just under one square mile, is the largest and most densely populated of 12 islands in the group and supports almost 600 people. Most of the inhabitants live in the southern part of the island. Other major islands in Namonuito Atoll include Pisaras and Magur.
