Adre Airfield
Airport Overview
The Adre landing strip is located on the Chadian-Sudanese border to the East. The landing zone goes from East to West and has none of the equipment needed for a functioning airport. However, the airstrip does serve a purpose for shipments destined for the Eastern border of Chad where there is a large humanitarian presence.The conflict in Sudan has sparked a large influx of refugees and reinvigorated the need for the Adre landing strip to be active. In early August, the airstrip is expected to be fully operational for both airplanes and helicopters.
