About Heriberto Gíl Martínez Airport
Heriberto Gíl Martínez Airport is a small public airport serving Tuluá, a commercial and agricultural center in Colombia's Valle del Cauca department. The facility was previously known as Farfán Airport and was renamed in 2004 in honor of Heriberto Gil Martínez, an early Colombian aviator.
The airport lies about 2 km west of central Tuluá and has a single asphalt runway of roughly 1,200 meters. Although the airfield previously handled regional commercial flights, scheduled airline services are not currently operated; the runway is used mainly for general aviation, training and civil-military operations, including activity by the Marco Fidel Suárez Military Aviation School.
Road connections link the airport with Tuluá and the wider Cauca Valley, including nearby towns such as Buga and larger centers such as Cali. The short transfer distance makes it convenient for private and chartered flights serving the city and surrounding region.
