Plaine Des Gaiacs Airfield was located at Plaine Des Gaiacs near Pouembout on New Caledonia. Named for the Gaiac trees that grow in the area. Early in the war, Free French were in control of the field. The airstrip was expanded into two massive sealed runways.
Expanded by the US Army, it was mainly used as a staging and training base for aircraft bound for Australia or north to the New Hebridies (Vanuatu) combat zones.
Closed after the war.
Enjoy!

Thank you for modeling the home of the 69th BS! So many bases in the PTO are unsuable in the sim, glad to have this one up and running.
