Aeródromo de Puerto La Victoria (PCJ)

Aeródromo de Puerto La Victoria (PCJ), designated by the ICAO as SGLV, is a small public-use aviation facility serving the town of Puerto La Victoria in the Concepción Department of Paraguay. The airport functions as a basic regional landing ground and does not feature a formal commercial passenger terminal building. It serves as a vital infrastructure link for the surrounding ranching communities and provides essential connectivity for private charters and emergency medical flights in this remote river region.

Facilities at the airstrip are extremely minimal and designed for essential transit rather than passenger comfort. There are no on-site commercial amenities such as retail shops, restaurants, or currency exchange desks, and the environment typically consists of a modest administrative structure or basic sheltered waiting area. Travelers and pilots are advised to be completely self-sufficient and to coordinate all logistical needs, including food, water, and ground transportation, in the town of Puerto La Victoria prior to arrival.

Operationally, the airfield features a single unpaved dirt and grass runway situated at an elevation of 286 feet above sea level. All flights are conducted under Visual Flight Rules (VFR) during daylight hours, as the facility is not equipped with a control tower or modern instrument approach systems. It is not an official international Airport of Entry, meaning all customs and immigration formalities must be completed at a major hub like Asunción (ASU). Ground transportation is informal, with most visitors arranging private vehicle pickups or utilizing local community transport to reach the nearby Paraguay River ports.
