Kerevat Airfield : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kerevat Airfield
Kerevat Airfield (prewar: Tavilo Plantation; variant: "Keravat") was an aerodrome located near Kerevat, East New Britain province, Papua New Guinea. Situated on the northern coast, it was south west of Rabaul. The airfield was constructed by the Imperial Japanese in World War II during September 1943. Kerevat Airfield was neutralized by Allied Powers' air bombing from 1944 who ran missions on the airfield between June 20, 1943 and May 16, 1944. The airfield was abandoned after the cessation of hostilities; however, the airstrip is still visible. ==Structure== The airfield's single runway was located on Ataliklikun Bay east of Vunakanauwas. The runway was long and wide and ran parallel to the Keravat River in an east-west direction, to the southwest of Rabaul.〔 It was not an all weather concrete runway. Though the runway was upgraded, it was never fully operational and its use was limited to crash landing as the airstrip, riddled with problems, was generally subject to drainage and other engineering problems, making it difficult for use for regular flight operations.
